In the Bleak Midwinter
STEVEN JOHN ANDERSON, DP, ROBIN WOMPHREY, CLIFFORD DAVID MASTERSON
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 midwinter a stable place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ
Enough for Him, whom cherubim, worship night and day
A breast full of milk, and a mangerful of hay
Enough for Him, whom angels fall down before
The ox and us and camel which I 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 can I give Him give my heart
