In the bleak midwinter

Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830-1894) Meter: Irregular Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:10 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 breastful of milk and a mangerful of hay: enough for him whom angels fall down before, the ox and ass and camel which adore. 4 Angels and archangels may have gathered there, cherubim and seraphim thronged the air, but only his mother, in her maiden bliss, worshiped the Beloved with a kiss. 5 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.

Schell Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:14 First Line: I'll rise at early morning hour Lyrics: 1 I’ll rise at early morning hour, With first effulgent rays, While nature’s songsters in the bow’r, Send up their Maker’s praise; I’ll bow before my God so dear, And tarry till my heart shall hear The Spirit’s witness sweet and clear: “Without spot and blameless.” 2 While proud in heart, at bright midday, Can find no time for prayer, My thoughts shall soar from earth away, To heaven, bright and fair: Around the fam’ly altar knelt, My heart with gratitude will melt, Till blest assurance shall be felt, “Without spot and blameless.” 3 And when the pleasant evening air Is dusky with the night, My soul shall turn to God in prayer, In heaven’s golden light; I’ll linger at the great white throne, Until the thoughts of God are known, And He shall claim me for His own, “Without spot and blameless.” 4 With God’s approval on my soul My body sinks to rest, No doubts nor waves of trouble roll Across my peaceful breast; And through the night that hand so mild Protects from storms and billows wild His helpless, trusting, loving child, “Without spot and blameless.” Used With Tune: [I'll rise at early morning hour] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Without_Spot_and_Blameless); Faith Publishing House, Evening Light Songs, 1949, edited 1987 (193); The Gospel Trumpet Company, Select Hymns, 1911 (383)
