What Child Is This?
by Kathleen Battle
on A Christmas Celebration [Kathleen Battle Edition, Vol. 12]
Lyrics
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
Hast, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh
These gifts so rare we bring to him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts surround you
Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary
