Selah - What Child Is This Lyrics
What Child is this who laid to restOn Mary's lap is sleepingWhom angels greet with anthems sweetWhile sheperds watch are keepingThis, this is Christ the KingWhom sheperds guard and angels singHaste, Haste to bring Him laudThe Babe, the Son of MaryThe Babe, the Son of MaryWhy lies He in such mean estateWhere ox and ass are feedingGood Christian, fear for sinners hereThe silent Word is pleadingThis, this is Christ the KingWhom sheperds guard and angels singHaste, Haste to bring him laudThe Babe, the Son of MarySo bring incense, gold, and myrrhCome peasant, come king to own HimThe King of kings salvation bringsLet loving hearts enthrone HimRaise, raise, the song on highThe virgin sings her lullabyJoy, Joy for Christ is bornThe Babe, the Son of MaryThis, this is Christ your KingWhom sheperds guard and angels singHaste, Haste to bring Him laudThe Babe, the Son of MaryThe Babe, the Son of MaryOoh, born in a manger, laid in some hayThey just didn't know who you wereOoh, You were born in a stable, so far awayO, we just didn't know who You wereYes, sweet little Jesus, boySweet little Jesus, boy... OohDidn't know who, who you were
