What Child Is This
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
Raise, raise the song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born the Babe
The son of Mary
4.O Come O Come Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
Rejoice
O come, O come, Emmanuel
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
O come, Thou Day-Spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Has come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Has come to thee, O Israel
