What child is this that laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
And shepherds watch are keeping.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe the son of Mary.
--- Instrumental ---
So bring him incense gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to own him
The king of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe the son of Mary.

Haste, haste to bring him laud
