What Child Is This?  (Greensleeves)

Chorus 1

This this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds seek and angels sing
Haste haste to bring Him praise
The babe the Son of Mary

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

Verse 2

Why lies He in so poor a place
Where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christians fear for God is here
And for our peace is pleading

Verse 3

So bring Him incense gold and myrrh
Come humbly to revere Him
The King of kings salvation brings
Let faithful hearts draw near Him
