jars of clay & shel - what child is this lyrics
[verse 1]
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
[verse 2]
so bring him incense, gold and myrrh
come peasant, king to hold him
the king of kings salvation brings
let loving hearts enthrone him
[chorus 2]
raise, raise a song on high
his mother sings her lullaby
joy, joy for christ is born
the babe, the son of mary
[instrumental]
[chorus 2]
raise, raise a song on high
his mother sings her lullaby
joy, joy for christ is born
the babe, the son of mary
[chorus 1]
this, this is christ the king
whom shepherds guard and angels sing
haste, haste to bring him laud
the babe, the son of mary
