what child is this - sleeping at last lyrics
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]
this, this is christ the king,
whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
haste, haste, to bring him laud,
the babe, the son of mary.
why lies he in such mean estate,
where ox and -ss are feeding?
good christians, fear, for sinners here
the silent word is pleading.
[chorus]
nails, spear shall pierce him through,
the cross be borne for me, for you.
hail, hail the word made flesh,
the babe, the son of mary.
[chorus]
so bring him incense, gold and myrrh,
come peasant, king to own him;
the king of kings salvation brings,
let loving hearts enthrone him.
[chorus]
raise, raise a song on high,
the virgin sings her lullaby.
joy, joy for christ is born,
the babe, the son of mary.
