In the Bleak Midwinter
Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti; John Andrew Storey Hymnal: Worship in Song #84 (1996) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Lyrics: 1 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.
2 Christ a homeless stranger,
So the gospels say,
Cradled in a manger
And a bed of hay;
In the bleak midwinter
Stableplace sufficed
Mary and her baby,
Jesus Christ.
3 Once more child and mother
Weave their magic spell,
Cradled in a manger
And a bed of hay;
In the bleak midwinter,
In this world of pain,
Where our hearts are open
Love is born again.
4 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?
I can give my heart. Topics: Christmas; Story of Jesus; Love; Nativity; Winter Tune Title: CRANHAM

Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti, 1830-1894; John Andrew Storey, 1935- Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #241 (1993) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Lyrics: 1 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.
2 Christ a homeless stranger,
so the gospels say,
cradled in a manger
and a bed of hay;
in the bleak midwinter
stable-place sufficed
Mary and her baby,
Jesus Christ.
3 Once more child and mother
weave their magic spell,
touching hearts with wonder
words can never tell;
in the bleak midwinter,
in this world of pain,
where our hearts are open
love is born again.

Author: Christina G. Rossetti Hymnal: The Presbyterian Hymnal #36 (1990) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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 incarnate,
Jesus Christ.
3 Angels and archangels
May have gathered there,
Cherubim and seraphim
Thronged the air;
But His mother only,
In her maiden bliss,
Worshipped the beloved
With a kiss.
4 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.

Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti Hymnal: Voices United #55 (1996) Meter: Irregular First Line: In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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.
3 Enough for him, whom cherubim worship night and day,
a breast full of milk, and a manger full of hay.
Enough for him, whom angels fall down before,
the ox and ass and camel which adore.
4 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.
