In the bleak mid winterA
Frosty wind made moanB
Earth stood hard as ironC
Water like a stoneB
Snow had fallen snow on snowD
Snow on snowD
In the bleak mid winterA
Long agoD
-
Our God Heaven cannot hold HimE
Nor earth sustainF
Heaven and earth shall flee awayG
When He comes to reignF
In the bleak mid winterA
A stable place sufficedH
The Lord God AlmightyI
Jesus ChristH
-
Enough for Him whom cherubimE
Worship night and dayG
A breastful of milkJ
And a mangerful of hayG
Enough for Him whom angelsK
Fall down beforeL
The ox and ass and camelM
Which adoreL
-
Angels and archangelsK
May have gathered thereN
Cherubim and seraphimE
Throng'd the airN
But only His motherA
In her maiden blissO
Worshipped her BelovedP
With a kissO
-
What can I give HimE
Poor as I amE
If I were a shepherdQ
I would bring a lambE
If I were a wise manR
I would do my partS
Yet what I can I give HimE
Give my heartS
