What child is this
Who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?

Whom angels greet
With anthems sweet
While the good shepherds
Watch our 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.

So bring Him incense, gold and [bad word] 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.

The Babe, the Son of God.
