Dave Wood - What Child Is This? (Greensleeves) Lyrics
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
This, this is Christ the king
The babe, the son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come peasant, come king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let bowing hearts enthrone Him.
This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
This, this is Christ the king
The babe, the son of Mary
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?
O raise, raise this song on high
The virgin sings a lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
O raise, raise this song on high
The virgin sings a lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
[Vocal fugue with Away in A Manger]
Yes raise, raise this song on high
The virgin sings a lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
Raise, raise this song on high
The virgin sings a lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
Raise, raise this song on high
The virgin sings a lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary
