[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:]
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
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!
What Child is this, who laid to rest

The Babe, the Son of Mary

Hail, hail, the Word made flesh
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
