IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER
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
So long ago
What 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 can I give him
Give my heart
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen snow snow
Snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
So long ago

That is lovely. do you have a link for music?
I like Christina Rossetti's work.
Good morning, apackof2 - I keep getting sidetracked from here - wanted to see if I could find that CD online - but couldn't. :( Was able to listen to a few samples of her other CDs though. Such a beautiful voice.
This is my very favorite Christmas song. Thanks for posting it!
