Rebecca St. James "What Child Is This" |
What child is this, who, laid to rest On Mary's lap was sleeping Whom angles 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 (I don't know what this is!) The babe the son of Mary Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and lamb 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 So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant, king, to own Him The king of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him This, this is Christ the king Whom shepherds guard and angels sing Haste, haste to bring Him laud 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 The babe the son of Mary Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
