What Child Is This Lyrics & Tabs by Joan Baez
What Child Is This
guitar chords lyrics
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.
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come peasant king to own Him;
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
The old year now is fled away
The new year it is entered
Then let us now our sins down tread
And joyfully all appear
Let's merry be this day
And let us now good sport and play
Hang? let’s cast care away
God send you a happy new year!
