Vers 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.
Vers 2
Heaven cannot hold him, nor can earth sustain, heav'n and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign. In the bleak midwinter a stableplace sufficed the Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.
Vers 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.
Vers 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 give him, give my heart.

Fri att sjunga: Gustav Holst dog 1934 och Christina Rossetti dog 1894.
