Rossetti, 1830-1894 • Music: Gustav Holst, 1874-1934 • Tune: CRANHAM, Meter: Irr. • Arranged and performed by Allison Crowe • In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan, • earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; • snow had fallen, snow on snow, • in the bleak midwinter, long ago. • Heaven cannot hold Him, nor the earth sustain; • Heaven and earth shall welcome Him when he comes to reign. • In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed • for the Lord Incarnate, Jesus Christ. • Angels and archangels sang their praises there, • cherubim and seraphim gathered in the air; • but his Mother Mary, in her maiden bliss, • worshiped the Beloved only with a kiss. • What can I give Him, poor as I am? • If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; • if I were a Wise One, I would do my part; • yet what I can I give him: give my heart • yet what I can I give him: give my heart.
