Gustav Holst
In the Bleak Midwinter
[Chorus]
In the bleak midwinter, frosty winds made moan
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter long, long ago

[Verse]
Angels and archangels may have traveled there
Cherubim and Seraphim thronged the air
But only His mother in her maiden bliss
Worshiped the Beloved with a kiss
Oh, what can I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb
And if I were a wise man, I would do my part
But what I can, I give Him, give him my heart
All I can, I give him, give him my hеart
