Lyrics What Child Is This - Libera , Robert Prizeman

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 worship and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him praise,
The babe the son of Mary

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 worship and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him praise,
The babe the son of Mary

So bring him incense gold and myrrh
All tongues and peoples own him,
The King of kings salvation brings
Let every hearts enthrone him

Raise, raise your song on high
While Mary sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The babe the son of Mary
