What child is this who laid to rest

On mary's lap is sleeping

Whom angels greet with an thems 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

Raise raise a song on high

Lover joy sings a lullaby

Joy joy for christ is born

The babe the son of mary
