The chords are written for capo on 1st fret

      Am                       G
What Child is this who, laid to rest
      Am              Em
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
          Am                        G
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet,
         Am            E              Am
While shepherds watch are keeping?

[CHORUS]  
C                 G
This, this is Christ the King,
           Am                           Em
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing;
C                       G
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
       Am         E          Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary.


       Am                  G
Why lies He in such mean estate,
         Am                   E
Where ox and ass are feeding?
        Am                           G
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
        Am   E          Am
The silent Word is pleading.


[CHORUS]


     Am                         G
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
          Am                     Em
Come peasant, king to own Him;
       Am                    G
The King of kings salvation brings,
      Am      E        Am
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.


[CHORUS]


Am     G       Am      Em


      Am                       G
What Child is this who, laid to rest
      Am      E       Am
On Mary's lap is sleeping?


[CHORUS]
