Lyrics

In the Bleak Midwinter

In the bleak midwinter

Frosty wind may blow

Earth stood hard as iron

Water like a stone

Snow had fallen, snow on snow

Snow on snow on snow

In the bleak midwinter

Long, long ago

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 I can, I give him

Give my heart

Snow had fallen, snow on snow

Snow on snow on snow

In the bleak midwinter

Long, long ago
