What Child is This (Greensleeves)

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 worship and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him praise, the babe, the son of Mary

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 worship and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him praise, the babe, the son of Mary

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh, all tongues and peoples own him

The King of Kings, salvation brings, let every heart enthrone him

Raise, raise your song on high, while Mary sings her lullaby

Joy, joy for Christ is born, the babe, the son of Mary
