What Child Is This Songtext
von Vince Gill

What child is this that lay to rest
On Mary′s lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthem sweet
And shepherd's watch are keeping

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherd′s guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him love
The babe, the son of Mary


So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to honour him
The king of kings salvation brings
Let loving arms enthrone him

This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him love
The babe, the son of Mary

This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherd's guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him love
The babe, the son of Mary
