What Child Is This? chords
William Chatterton Dix 1865 (words) music: Greensleeves
Am
Am C
What child is this, who, laid to rest
F E7
On Mary's lap, is sleeping?
Am C
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
F E7 Am
While shepherds watch are keeping?
C C
This, this is Christ the King,
F E7
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
C C
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
Am C
Why lies he in such mean estate
F E7
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Am C
Good Christian, fear for sinners here,
F E7 Am
The silent Word is pleasing.
C C
This, this is Christ the King,
F E7
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
C C
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
C C
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
F E7
The cross be borne for me, for you.
C C
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
C C
This, this is Christ the King,
F E7
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
C C
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
Am C
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
F E7
Come peasant king to own Him,
Am C
The King of kings, salvation brings,
F E7 Am
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
C C
This, this is Christ the King,
F E7
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
C C
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
C C
Raise, raise the song on high,
F E7
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
C C
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
F E7 Am
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
