What child is this who laid to rest

On Mary's lap is sleeping?

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet

While shepherds guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him laud

The babe the son of Mary



(Do you) hear what I hear (6x)



Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy

"Do you hear what I hear?

Ringing through the sky shepherd boy

Do you hear what I hear?

A song a song high above the trees

With a voice as big as the sea

With a voice as big as the sea



(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Do you) hear what I hear?



Said the shepherd boy to the mighty King

"So you know what I know?

In your palace warm mighty King

Do you know what I know?

The child the child sleeping in the night

He will bring us goodness and light

He will bring us goodness and light"



(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world...



Joy to the world the Lord is come

Let earth receive her King

Let every heart prepare him room

And heav'n and nature sing

And heav'n and nature sing

And heav'n and heav'n and nature sing



(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Do you) hear what I hear?

Joy to the world

(Somebody gotta tell ya)



Haste, haste to bring him laud

The babe the son of Mary...
