What Child Is This

       Em       G        D       Bm
What child is this who laid to rest
    C      Am      B
On Mary's lap is sleeping
       Em     G          D       Bm
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
       C         B    B7   Em
While shepherds watch are keeping

  G             D         Bm
This, this is Christ the King
       Em        C         B
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
  G               D        Bm
Haste, haste to bring Him praise
     C         B  B7  Em
The babe, the son of Mary

     Em     G        D    Bm

      C       Am         B
Where ox and cattle are feeding
       Em       G        D       Bm
Good Christian fear for sinners here
      C      B   B7   Em
The silent world is pleading


[Chorus]
  G             D         Bm
This, this is Christ the King
       Em        C         B
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

Hail, hail the word made flesh

The babe, the son of Mary

    Em        G       D        Bm
So bring Him incense gold and myrrh
      C       Am      B
Come peasant king to own Him
     Em      G        D       Bm
The King of Kings salvation brings
     C       B     B7  Em
Let loving hearts enthrone Him


[Chorus]
  G               D       Bm
Raise, raise the song on high
     Em      C       B
The virgin sings a lullaby

Joy, joy for Christ is born
     C         B  B7  Em
The babe, the son of Mary
