christmas songs - what child is this? lyrics

Loading...

(william chatterton dix, published ca. 1865)

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 -ss are feeding?
good christian, 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.

nails, spear, shall pierce him through,
the cross be borne, for me, for you:
hail, hail, the word made flesh,
the babe, the son of mary!
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
