In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago
Christ a homeless stranger, so the gospels say cradled in a manger and a bed of hay
in the bleak midwinter stable place sufficed
Mare and her baby, 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 can I give him, give him my heart
