What child is this who laid to rest on Mary's lap is sleeping
|
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet while shepherds watch are keeping
|
This this is Christ the King whom shepherds guard and angels sing
|
Haste haste to bring him laud the babe the son of Mary
|
|
Why lies he in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding
|
Good Christian fear for sinners here the silent Word is pleading
|
This this is Christ the King...
|
|
So bring him incense gold and myrrh come rich and poor to own him
|
The King of kings salvation brings let loving hearts enthrone him
|
This this is Christ the King...
