What Child Is This Lyrics by Josh Groban
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
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?

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

Oh, raise, raise a song on high
His Mother sings her lullaby
Joy, oh, joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary's lap, on Mary's lap he is sleeping?

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

Babe, the son of Mary
The son of Mary
