Lyrics
In the Bleak Midwinter
Sarah Motes Ashley 2015
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow
In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago
Peace on the earth
from heav'n's all gracious King
Oh hear the angels sing
Heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable-place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty
Jesus Christ.
Peace on the earth
from heav'n's all gracious King
Oh hear the angels sing
oh hear the angels sing
oh hear the angels
sing
