What Child Is This Lyrics - The Judds

What child is this, who laid to rest 

On Mary's lap is sleeping? 

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet 

While shepherds watch are keeping? 

This, this is Christ the King 

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing 

Haste, haste to bring Him laud 

The babe, the son of Mary 

Why lies He in such mean estate 

Where ox and ass are feeding? 

Good Christians, fear for sinners here 

The silent word is pleading 

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 enthrone Him 

This, this is Christ the King 

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing 

Haste, haste to bring Him laud 

The babe, the son of Mary 

This, this is Christ the King 

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing 

Joy, joy, for Christ is born 

The babe, the son of Mary
