What Child Is This?
Written by William Chatterton Dix
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?
CHORUS:
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
Oh Raise, raise a song on high
His mother sings her lullaby
Joy, oh joy the Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
CHORUS:
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary
