In The Bleak Midwinter

In the bleak midwinter, icy wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
Snow on snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago

Snow on snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago

Angels and archangels may have gathered there
Cherubim and seraphim rising in the air
Oh but holy Mary, in her maiden bliss
Worshipped the beloved with a mother's kiss

Snow on snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago

What then can I give Him, empty as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb
If I were a Wise Man, I would know my part
What then I can give Him, I must give my heart

Snow on snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago
