lyrics

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 ago

Angels and Arc Angels
May have traveled there
Cherubim and Seraphim
Filled the air

But only his Mother
In her maiden bliss
Worshiped the beloved
With a kiss

What can I give him?
Poor as I am
If I were a shepherd
I would give to him a lamb

If I were a wise man
I would do my part
But what can I give him
I’d give to him my heart
