what child is this

• Am

(verse 1) 
Am                     G  
What Child is this, who laid to rest 
   Am            E  
On Mary's lap is sleeping? 
     Am                G  
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet 
      Am        E         Am  
While shepherds watch are keeping? 
 
 
(chorus) 
C             G  
This, this is Christ the King 
     Am                  E  
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing. 
C               G  
Haste, haste to bring Him laud, 
    Am        E      Am  
The Babe, the Son of Mary. 
 
 
(verse 2) 
Am                  G  
Why lies he in such mean estate  
      Am             E  
Where ox and ass are feeding?   
     Am                  G  
Good Christian, fear for sinners here, 
    Am     E       Am  
The silent Word is pleasing. 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
C             G  
This, this is Christ the King 
     Am                  E  
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing. 
C               G  
Haste, haste to bring Him laud, 
    Am        E      Em  
The Babe, the Son of Mary. 
 
 
 
(verse 3) 
Am                    G  
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh; 
      Am               E  
Come, peasant king, to own Him. 
    Am               G  
The King of Kings salvation brings; 
    Am     E      Am  
Let loving hearts enthrone Him. 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
C             G  
This, this is Christ the King 
     Am                  E  
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing. 
C               G  
Haste, haste to bring Him laud, 
    Am        E      Am  
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
