What Child Is This? Songtext
von Chris Tomlin & All Sons & Daughters

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?

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing!
Haste, haste to bring Him laud
The Babe the Son of Mary


So bring Him incense
Gold and myrrh come peasant
King to own Him
The King of kings
Salvation brings, let loving hearts
Enthrone Him

Raise, raise a song on high!
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing!
Haste, haste to bring Him laud
The Babe the Son of Mary

Nails, spears shall pierce Him through
The Cross He bore for me, for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
The Babe the Son of Mary
