What Child Is This? (carol Of The Bells)

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

Why lies He in such mean estate

Where ox and ass 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 praise

The babe, the son of Mary

So bring him incense,

Gold and myrrh,

Come peasant king to love him;

The king of kings salvation brings,

Let loving hearts enthrone him.

Raise, raise the song on high,

The virgin sings her lullaby:

Joy, joy for Christ is born,

The babe, the son of Mary.
