[00:18.25]What child is this, who, laid to rest,
[00:22.91]On Mary's lap is sleeping?
[00:27.75]Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
[00:32.48]While shepherds watch are keeping?
[00:37.71]
[00:42.16]Why lies he in such mean estate
[00:46.92]Where ox and ass are feeding?
[00:51.63]Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
[00:56.40]The silent Word is pleading.
[01:01.63]
[01:09.30]This, this is Christ the King,
[01:13.29]Whom shepherds guard and angels sing,
[01:18.42]Haste, haste to bring him laud,
[01:22.85]The babe, the son of Mary.
[01:44.04]
[01:49.20]So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh,
[01:54.36]Come, peasant, king, to own him.
[01:59.01]the King of kings salvation brings,
[02:03.78]Let loving hearts enthrone him.
[02:08.72]
[02:11.38]This, this is Christ the King,
[02:15.82]Whom shepherds guard and angels sing,
[02:20.82]Haste, haste to bring him laud,
[02:25.32]The babe, the son of Mary.
[02:29.37]Raise, raise the song on high,
[02:32.50]The Virgin sing her lullaby,
[02:37.60]Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
[02:42.28]The Babe, the Son of Mary.
