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 is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing From our hearts our praises ring To the Babe, the Son of Mary Oh, raise a song on high His Mother sings her lullaby 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 is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing From our hearts our praises ring To the Babe, the Son of Mary Oh, raise a song on high His Mother sings her lullaby This is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing From our hearts our praises ring To the Babe, the Son of Mary Oh, raise a song on high His Mother sings her lullaby This is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing From our hearts our praises ring To the Babe, the Son of Mary Oh, raise a song on high His Mother sings her lullaby

Run a silent path to nowhere, everything is all You could have a pleasant life if Summer had no Fall Treat yourself so gently though the task is often hard Man is not a God it seems, who holds the final card Close your eyes and feel the darkness, speak and hear the sound, We only catch a glimpse of all the life that is around, The man is not alive who knows the value of his soul, And when our lives are pulled away, there's more to fill the hole I wonder what you'd think if all the changes didn't come, For growing old is only going back to where you're from Far beyond our senseless thoughts there lies a core of gold Where essence of the newborn child is waiting in the old, The Master Plan is well conceived, it's there for all to see And each day that is spent in thought is living harmony Reach into the depths of being, pass beyond the years, Time is lost in stillness, where there are no hopes and fears, Linger in the void, and like a beacon in the night Purity will fill your soul with ever-present light Everything you've seen is waiting patiently within For growing old is only going back to where you've been

You came here for the outsider You came here for the least of these You came here for the broken hearts And lifted us off our knees We saw a light in the sky We followed hope through the night Now we can see He's here, Christ the King (This is, This is, This is Christ Our King) (This is, This is, The Holy One who set us free) You came here to take down our hate To bear the burden that we could not take You came here to restore our lives You are the treasure that we could not buy We saw a light in the sky We followed hope through the night Now we can see He's here, Christ the King (This is, This is, This is Christ Our King) (This is, This is, The Holy One who set us free) Hallelujah, Heaven's open wide The King became a babe on this starry night (This is, This is, This is Christ Our King) Hey oh Hey, the Word made flesh This King was born to die for us Hey oh Hey, Our God in flesh The King has come and rescued us Yeah, Yeah Through the blood of the Lamb That was shed on the cross All things made new Came for the broken of heart A perfection that we look to A love on display that saves A beauty that's making a way Who took all my sins, shame and guilt And threw it away Free from it all, you know Only God get the glory He's lighting a path, where I become Second and live to be His story We are messengers living to give Every breath and all that I be Giving all of ourselves to Who is on the throne, Christ Our King This is, This is, This is Christ Our King This is, This is, The Holy One who set us free Hallelujah, Heavens open wide The King became a babe on that starry night This is, This is, This is Christ Our King This is, This is, This is Christ Our King
