Em                       C  
What child is this, who laid to rest  
G                          D  
On Mary's lap is sleeping?  
Em                      C  
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,  
G                        D  
While shepherds watch are keeping?  

Em                   C  
This, this is Christ the King,  
G                     D  
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;  
Em                       C  
Haste, haste to bring him laud,  
G                 D       Em  
The babe, the son of Mary.  

Em                      C  
Why lies he in such mean estate,  
G                        D  
Where ox and ass are feeding?  
Em                          C  
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here  
G                         D  
The silent Word is pleading.  

Em                   C  
Nails, spear shall pierce him through,  
G                      D  
The cross be borne for me, for you;  
Em                       C  
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,  
G                D         Em  
The babe, the son of Mary.
