What Child Is This

Dm   F        C        Am              Dm     Bb     A
What Child is this who laid to rest on Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Dm   F      C          Am                   Dm        A         Dm
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping?

[Chorus 1]
F             C          Am        Dm        Bb        A
This, this is Christ the King whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
F               C         Am        Dm        A      Dm
Haste, haste to bring Him laud… the babe, the son of Mary

[Verse 2]
Dm           F        C         Am           Dm      Bb       A
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh, come, peasant King, to own Him;
    Dm      F        C      Am          Dm     A        Dm
The King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone Him

[Chorus 2]
F             C          Am        Dm        Bb        A
This, this is Christ the King whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
F               C         Am        Dm        A      Dm   Am Dm Am
Haste, haste to bring Him laud… the babe, the son of Mary

      Dm                   F         C       Am      Bb            A
(Hallelujah) What Child is this, who laid to rest on Mary’s lap is sleeping?
      Dm                 C          Am      Dm
(Hallelujah) Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
       Bb                 A              Dm F C Am     Bb Gm A
While shepherds watch are keeping? (Hallelujah,…  Hallelujah!)

[Chorus 3]
F              Am                Bb               A
Raise, raise a song on high; The virgin sings her lullaby
F            C         Am        Dm        A      Dm
Joy, joy for Christ is born; The Babe, the Son of Mary

[Chorus 3]

Haste, haste to bring Him laud… the babe, the son... of Mary
