What Child Is This?

HENRY VIII, ROCH VOISINE, 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

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 lay He in such mean estate
Where ox and lamb are feeding?
Good Christian, fear, for sinner here
The silent Word is pleading

This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant, and king to own Him
The King of king's salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

Raise, raise a song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, oh joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary
