What child is this Who, laid to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping? Whom angels greet with anthem sweet While shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing: This, this is Christ the King The Babe, the Son of Mary Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and lamb are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here The silent Word is pleading This, this is Christ the King, etc So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh Come, peasant, kin to own Him; The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him This this is Christ the King...etc
