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 Christian fear, for sinners here The silent word is pleading Nails, spear shall pierce him through The cross be borne for me, for you Hail, hail the Word made flesh The babe, the son of Mary Then bring him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant, king to own him The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone him Raise, raise the song on high The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy, for Christ is born The babe, the son of Mary
