What Child Is This? Johnny Mathis

Lyrics and guitar chords

  • Guitar chords Intermediate The Tonal Key F♯m
What FmChild is G# this who, D# laid to Cmrest
On FmMary's C# lap is Csleeping?
Whom FmAngels G# greet with D# anthems Cmsweet,
While Fmshepherds Cmwatch are Fmkeeping?


G# This, this is D# Christ the CmKing,
Whom Fmshepherds C# guard and CAngels sing;
G# Haste, haste, to D# bring Him Cmlaud,
The FmBabe, the CSon of FmMary.


Why Fmlies He G# in such D# mean Cmestate,
Where Fmox and C# ass are feCeding?
Good FmChristians, G# fear, for D# sinners Cmhere
The Fmsilent CmWord is Fmpleading.


G# Nails, spear D# shall pierce CmHim through,
The Fmcross be C# borne for Cme, for you.
G# Hail, hail the D# Word made Cmflesh,
The FmBabe, the CmSon of FmMary.


So Fmbring Him G# incense, D# gold and Cmmyrrh,
Come Fmpeasant, C# king to Cown Him;
The FmKing of G# kings D# salvation Cmbrings,
Let Fmloving Cmhearts Fmenthrone Him.


G# Raise, raise a D# song on Cmhigh,
The Fmvirgin C# sings her Clullaby.
G# Joy, joy for D# Christ is Cmborn,
The FmBabe, the CmSon of FmMary.
