What child is this who lay to rest On Mary's lap is sleeping Whom angels greet with anthems sweet While shepards watch are keeping This! This! is Christ the King Whom shepards guard and angels sing This! This! is Christ the King The babe the son of Mary Why lies He in such mean estate Where ox and lamb are feeding Good christian fear for sinners hear The silent word is leading So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh Come plesent king to own Him The king of kings salvation brings Let love and hearts enthrone Him
