Chicago — What Child is This?

[Intro: Bill Champlin] An angel's song is sung Mary's time has come to pass The Lord will have a Son Wise men come To welcome home the child [Verse 1: Bill Champlin] 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 [Chorus: Bill Champlin] This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing, ooh Haste, haste to bring him laud The Babe, the Son of Mary, Mary (An angel's song is sung Mary's time has come to pass) [Verse 2: Bill Champlin] So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh Come peasant king to own Him The King of kings, salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him [Chorus: Bill Champlin] Raise, raise the song on high The Virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy, for Christ is born The Babe, the Son of Mary, ooh, Mary (An angel's song is sung Wise men come to welcome home the child) [Verse 3: Bill Champlin] 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 [Bridge: Bill Champlin] An angel's song is sung (Sing a song) Mary's time has come to pass (Time has come at last) The Lord will have a Son Wise men come To welcome home the child [Outro: Bill Champlin] Welcome home Mary's time has come to pass The Lord will have a Son Wise men come To welcome home the child
