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?

Refrain:
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 rich and poor to own Him.
The king of kings, salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

Refrain
