Lyrics What Child Is This? - Earth , Wind & Fire

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?

Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
The silent word is pleading

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

Raise, raise the Son on high
The virgin sees a Lamb on high
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe, the son of Mary

This is Christ, our King
The babe, the son of Mary
This is Christ, our King
The babe, the son of Mary
This is Christ, our King
The babe, the son of Mary
