What Child Is This
JORDAN SMITH · 'Tis The Season 2016 · Track 06 of 12
What Child is this who lay to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping
Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and ass are feeding Good Christians, fear, for sinners 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, king to own Him The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him
Raise, raise a song on high The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy for Christ is born The Babe, the Son of Mary
What Child is this who lay to rest While shepherds watch are keeping
