Connie Smith - What Child Is This 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



Why lies he in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding

Good Christian fear for sinners here the silent Word is pleading

This this is Christ the King...



So bring him incense gold and myrrh come rich and poor to own him

The King of kings salvation brings let loving hearts enthrone him

This this is Christ the King...
