In the Bleak Midwinter
In the bleak midwinter, frost wind made moanEarth stood hard as iron, water like a stoneSnow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snowIn the bleak midwinter, long agoOur God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustainHeaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reignIn the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficedThe Lord God Almighty, Jesus ChristAngels and archangels may have gathered thereCherubim and seraphim thronged the airBut his mother only, in her maiden blissWorshiped the beloved with a kissWhat can I give him, poor as I amIf I were a shepherd, I would bring a lambIf I were a Wise Man, I would do my partYet what I can I give him: give my heart
