Tom Mathias Always stoked for new tunes by DP, this one is great because it is familiar and new at the same time. A great twist on a classic: Christmas with a side of dark synth, Love it!

lyrics

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

Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.

[Chorus]

So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come, peasant, king to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

[Chorus]

David Pataconi Tucson, Arizona

Evocative music for the nostalgic future. Uplifting Industrial and Synthwave. Armed with infectious vocal hooks and nostalgic synthesizers, my intent is to reinvigorate those who are hurting, and to incite hope and joy into the heart of each listener. Each soundscape is meticulously processed through musical atmospheres and emotionally-charged lyrical outcries of joy, sorrow, and hope in Christ. ... more
