What Child Is This
Christina Aguilera Lyrics
What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthem sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping
This is Christ the Lord
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary
Where ox and ass are feeding
Good Christian fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
This is Christ the Lord
Whom shepards guard and angels sing
Haste,haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrh
Come peasant king to own Him
The King of Kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
This is Christ the Lord
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The babe, the son of Mary

I played piano for Christina on this one. I recall rehearsing with her at her home in Wexford, PA. Her mom, Shelly, nice lady, would give me cake. Christina was extremely focused. She'd always have her microphone in her hand when she walked around the house !

LOL, I was one of the backing vocalists, borrowed from the Bach Choir of Pittsburgh. Nice to meet you, bro -- good job. At least, if they used the studio track for the live performance backing... I still have my copy of that Home for the Holidays CD.

Fantastic performance. I remember when she sang the National Anthem at Penguin games back in the day and me being very impressed with her voice. She was around the same age as in this video.
