What Child is This? (traditional/arr. Jim Proctor)
What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds’ watch, shepherds’ watch…
(Refrain) This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe the son of Mary.
So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own him.
The king of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts, loving hearts…
(Refrain)
