In the Bleak Mid-winter

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

Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him

Nor Earth sustain

Heaven and Earth shall flee away

When He comes to reign

In the bleak mid-winter

A stable-place sufficed

The Lord God Almighty

Jesus Christ

Enough for Him, whom Cherubim

Worship night and day

A breastful of milk

And a mangerful of hay

Enough for Him, whom Angels

Fall down before

The ox and ass and camel

Which adore

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 my heart
