In The Bleak Mid-Winter

In The Bleak Mid-Winter - The Joyous Voices

In the bleak midwinter

Frost 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 can not hold him

Nor earth sustain

Heaven and earth shall flee away

When he comes to reign

Cause in the bleak midwinter

A stable place sufficed

The lord god almighty

Jesus christ

Angels and archangels

May have gathered there

Cherubim and seraphim

Thronged the air

But his mother only

In her maiden bliss

Worshiped the beloved

With a kiss

What can I give him

Poor as I am

If I were a shepherd yeah

I would give a lamb

If I were a wise man

I would do my part

Yet

What I can I give him

I give my heart

You want I can I give you

Give my heart
