In The Bleak Of Midwinter

In the bleak midwinter

Frosty wind made moan

Earth stood hard as iron

Water like a stone

Snow had fallen, snow on snow

Snow on snow

In the bleak midwinter

Long ago



Angels and archangels

They have gathered there

Cherubim and seraphim

Round in the air

For his mother only

In her maiden bliss

Worship the beloved

With a kiss



In the bleak midwinter

A stable place sufficed

The Lord God almighty

Jesus Christ



What can I give Him

Poor as I am

If I were a shepherd

I would bring a lamb

If I were a wise man

I would do my part

Yet what I can I give him

Give my heart

Give, give my heart
