   Em             A7          D  
What child is this, who laid to rest,  
         G           Em     A7  D  
On Mary's lap is sleeping?  
        Em          A7           D  
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,  
         G          Em    A7  D  
While shepherds watch are keeping?  

   G         A7        D  
This, this is Christ the King,  
   G        A7       D  
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;  
   G         A7        D  
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,  
   G        A7       D  
The babe, the son of Mary.  

   Em             A7          D  
Why lies He in such mean estate,  
         G           Em     A7  D  
Where ox and ass are feeding?  
        Em          A7           D  
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here  
         G          Em    A7  D  
The silent Word is pleading.  

   G         A7        D  
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,  
   G        A7       D  
The cross be borne for me, for you;  
   G         A7        D  
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,  
   G        A7       D  
The babe, the son of Mary.
