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 1
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
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh, come peasant king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone Him
Verse 3
Now let our praises ring this night, all heaven and earth together
The light of love is born to us, exalt His name forever
Chorus 2
This, this is Christ the King, let every tongue and nation sing
Praise, praise His holy name, the saving Son of Mary
