What Child Is This / This Is Our God

Outline: V1,Ch1,V2,Ch2,V3,Ch3,Tag,V4

Verse 1:
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?  

Chorus 1:
This, this is Christ, the King,
Whom shepherds guard, and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son, the Glorious One,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.  
  
Verse 2:  
Who is this Child asleep in the manger?
Tender and mild, this intimate stranger?
Recklessly, wildly loving a dangerous world.
Who is this Light invading our darkness?
Glorious might, the sun rising for us.
Conquering might, He captures the hardest of hearts.   

Chorus 2:
This is our God, living and breathing,
Call Him courageous, relentless and brave.
This is our God, loving and reaching,
Scandalous mercy and mighty to save.
Hallelujah! This is our God!  
Hallelujah! This is our God  
Hallelujah! This is our God! 
Sing Praise.  

Verse 3
Who is this One who will not condemn us?
Why would He come to shoulder our sentence?
Nothing we’ve done will keep Him from giving us grace.
Who is this One? We watch and we’re speechless.
God’s only Son, embracing our weakness.
He overcomes all death and He frees us to live. And we sing:  

Chorus 3:
This is our God, suffering and dying.
Call Him the Hero, redeeming the lost. 
This is our God, love sacrificing, 
All that is holy, accepting our cross. 
Hallelujah! This is our God!  
Hallelujah! This is our God
Hallelujah! This is our God! 
Sing Praise.

Verse 4:
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him laud, 
the Babe, the Son of Mary! 

This, this is Christ the King, 
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing! 
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son, the glorious One, the Babe the Son of Mary
