[Verse 1]
[Em]What child is this, who [D]lay to rest
On [Em]Mary's [C]lap is [B]sleeping,

While [C]shepherds [B]watch are [E]keeping?

Whom [C]shepherds guard and [B]angels sing,
His [D]face to bring Him [B]laud,
The [Em]Babe, the [B]Son of [E]Mary.
[Em]Why lies he in such [D]mean estate
Where [B]ox [Em]and ass are feedi[B]ng?
Good [Em]Chris[E]tian, fear,
for [D]sinners hear
The silent [B]word is [E]plead[B] ing.
[E]Oh, [B]may the spear [D]shall pierce
him through the [Em]cross,
[E]be bor[B]n for me and you.
[Em]Hail, hail [D]the Word [Em]made [B]flesh
to [Em]bathe the [B]Son of [E]Mary.[Em]
[E]So [Em]bring [D]him [G]incense,
[D]gold, and myrrh,
[Em]Come, peasant [E]king, [B]to own him.
The [E]king [Em]of ki[D]ng[G]s salv[D]ation brings,
Let [Em]loving [B]hearts en[E]throne [Em]him.[E]
[B]Raise, [D]raise the song on high,
The [Em]Virgin [B]sings her lullaby.
