  • (William Chatterton Dix, published ca. 1865)
  • 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
  • Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
  • Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
  • The Babe, the Son of Mary.
  • Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through,
  • The Cross be borne, for me, for you:
  • Hail, hail, the Word made flesh,
  • The Babe, the Son of Mary!
  • 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
