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
This, this is Christ the King
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him praise
The Babe, the Son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrth
Come peasant, king, to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King (Jesus, Jesus)
This, this is Christ the King (how I trust Him!)
This, this is Christ the King
O'er to trust Him o'er
'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
Just to take Him at His Word
Just to rest upon His promise
And to know, "Thus saith the Lord!"
This, this is Christ the King
This, this is Christ the King
This, this is Christ the King
The Babe, the Son of Mary
