Verse 1
(A minor) (D minor) What child (A minor) is this, who laid (G major) to rest
On (A minor) Mary's lap is sleeping?
(E major) Whom (A minor) angels greet
with (G major) anthems sweet,
While (A minor) shepherds watch are keeping.
(C major) This, this is (G major) Christ the King,
Whom (A minor) shepherds guard
and (E major) angels sing.
Haste, (C major) haste to (G major) bring him love,
The (A minor) Babe,
the Son (E major) of (A minor) Mary. (D minor) (G major) (A minor) (D minor)
Why (A minor) lies he in such (G major) mean estate
Where (A minor) ox and ass are feeding?
That Christian fear for (G major) sinners here,
The (A minor) silent word is pleading.
(C major) Nails, spears shall (G major) pierce him through,
The (A minor) cross be borne for (E major) me, for you.
Hail! (C major) Hail! The (G major) Bird -made Flesh,
the (A minor) Babe, (E major) the Son of (A minor) Mary. (D minor) (G major) (A minor) (D minor)
So bring (A minor) him incense, (G major) gold, and myrrh
Come, (A minor) peasant king, to own him
The King of Kings sal (G major) vation
brings that (A minor) loving hearts and throne him.
Raise, (C major) raise the (G major) psalm on high,
the (A minor) Virgin sings her (E major) lullaby.
Joy, (C major) joy, for (G major) Christ is born,
the (A minor) Babe, (E major) the Son of (A minor) Mary. (D minor) (A minor)
you
