I believe the lyrics to be correct, but may be off because they do not use traditional lyrics.
Enjoy!
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 praise,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
He lies in such a lonely place,
Where ox and lamb are feeding?
The end of fear for all hear,
The silent Word is speaking.
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come peasant king to love 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!
