What child is this?

Text: Anie Burke-Webb; Melodie: „Greensleeves“ What child is this, who rises now from His Mother’s womb returning. Her children greet most joyously the sight of His face’s bright burning. Chorus:This, this is the Sun child born, The radiant one, the light returned Born unto the world again, This child, the promise of summer. His growing light returns the warmth that darkness stole from out the Earth To bud the leaves, and blossoms bring to signal the Spring’s rebirth. Chorus

Ye children all of Mother Earth
