What child is this
  Who laid to rest
  On Mary's lap is sleeping
  Whom angels greet with anthem sweet
  While shepherds watch are keeping
  
  Chorus:
  This, this is Christ the King
  Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
  This, this is Christ the King
  The babe, the son of Mary
  
  Why lies he in such mean estate
  Where ox and lamb are feeding
  Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
  The silent word is pleading
  
  Chorus
  
  So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
  Come, peasant, kin to own him
  The King of Kings salvation brings
  Let loving hearts enthrone him
  
  Chorus
