In the Bleak Mid-Winter

In the bleak midwinter a storm began
The earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter long ago
God of 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
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior's birth
And the angels sang, the angels sang, the angels sang
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! above the earth
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior's birth
And the angels sang, the angels sang, the angels sang
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! above the earth
