What Child Is This? (Another Version)

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

Chorus:
 Bm    G       D         Bm
This, this is Christ the King
     Em                  Bm
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
 Bm    G         D         Bm
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
     Em        B7     Em
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

     Em     G        D    Bm
Why lies he in such mean estate
      Em              Bm
Where ox and ass are feeding?
          Em     G       D       Bm
Good Christian, fear for sinners here,
     Em     B7         Em
The silent Word is pleasing.

**Chorus

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

On Mary's lap is sleeping?

While shepherds watch are keeping?

Why lies he in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?

The silent Word is pleasing.


So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh;
Come, peasant king, to own Him.
The King of Kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
