In The Bleak Midwinter
Verse 1
In the bleak midwinterFrosty wind made moanEarth stood hard as ironWater like a stoneSnow had fallen snow on snowSnow on snowIn the bleak midwinterLong ago
Verse 2
Our God heav'n cannot hold HimNor earth sustainHeav'n and earth shall flee awayWhen He comes to reignIn the bleak midwinterA stable place sufficedThe Lord God AlmightyJesus Christ
Verse 3
Angels and archangelsMay have gathered thereCherubim and seraphimThronged the airBut His mother onlyIn her maiden blissWorshipped the BelovedWith a kiss
Verse 4
What can I give HimPoor as I amIf I were a shepherdI would bring a lambIf I were a wise manI would do my partYet what can I give HimGive my heart
