What Child is This?

Posted by
Gerard von Honhorst Adoration of the Shepherds

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?

We know why the angels are singing and the shepherds are watching. After all,

This, this is Christ the King,

Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing

He is The Good Shepherd

I am the Good Shepherd.

The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep

He is the Prince of Peace

Hail, the Son of Righteousness!

Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace!

He is Immanuel, God With Us

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel.

He is the King of Israel

Hark! the herald angels sing

Glory to the new-born King!

He is our Savior

God rest you merry, gentlemen,

Let nothing you dismay.

For Jesus Christ our Savior,

Was born on Christmas Day;

Peter Paul Rubens Christ on the Cross between the Two Thieves

He is Lord

And Lord of Lords (forever and ever)

King of Kings (forever and ever)

So, What should we do?

O come let us adore Him

O come let us adore Him

O come let us adore Him

Christ, the Lord
