In The Bleak Midwinter - Trad (Christina Rossetti 1800’s)
(Pre-Chorus)
In the bleak midwinter, frosty 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
(Chorus)
Angels and Archangels may have gathered there
Cherubim and Seraphim rising in the air
Oh, but only Mary, in her maiden Bliss
Worshipped the Beloved with a Mother’s Kiss
Bridge
Heaven cannot hold him
Nor can Earth Sustain
Heaven and Earth shall fall away
When he comes to Reign
(Post Chorus- Outro)
What then 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;
What then can I give him? I must give my heart
