[Verse 1]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
This, this is Christ the king
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

[Verse 3]
So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to love him
The king of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him
So raise, raise the song on high
His mother sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for christ is born
The babe, thе son of Mary
