What Child Is This by Brittany Mruczek

Soprano Brittany Mruczek sings the Christmas classic "What Child Is This". Musical accompaniment by The New Horizons (Michael Gmyrek - guitars and keyboards; S.J. Kroczynski - bass guitar). The lyrics to "What Child Is This" were written in 1865 by William Chatterton Dix and were subsequently set to the traditional English melody "Greensleeves". WHAT CHILD IS THIS 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? 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 Christians, fear, for sinners here The silent Word is pleading. This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing; Haste, haste, to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary. So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh, Come peasant, king to own Him; The King of kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone Him. This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing; Haste, haste, to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary.
