C#5        E5         B5          Ab5
What child is this, who, laid to rest
C#5        A5             Ab5
On Mary's lap, is sleeping?
C#5          E5        B5           Ab5
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
C#5       Ab5             C#5
While shepherds watch are keeping?

Chorus:
E5          B5             Ab5
This, this is Christ the King,
C#5         A5                Ab5
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
E5          B5               Ab5
Haste, haste to bring him praise,
C#5         Ab5            C#5
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
C#5       E5        B5         Ab5
He lies in such a lonely place,
C#5        A5            Ab5
Where ox and lamb are feeding?
C#5       E5      B5        Ab5
The end of fear for all hear,
C#5      Ab5            C#5
The silent Word is speaking.

Chorus

C#5         E5       B5            Ab5
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
C#5            A5                Ab5
Come peasant king to love Him ,
C#5            E5            B5        Ab5
The King of kings, salvation brings,
C#5            Ab5                C#5
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
E5             B5           Ab5
Raise, raise the song on high,
C#5         A5             Ab5
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
E5           B5            Ab5
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
C#5           Ab5         C#5
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
