Bleak Midwinter (Yorkshire)
[Verse 1]
In the bleak midwinter frosty winds made moan
Earth stood hard as iron and water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter long, long ago
[Verse 2]
Enough for him whom cherubim worship day and night
A manger in a stable and stars that shine so bright
Enough for him whom angels fall down before
The ox and ass and camel the baby all adore
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Angels and archangels may have gathered there
Cherubim and seraphim filled up the air
But his mother only in her maiden bliss
Worshiped the beloved with a perfect kiss
[Verse 4]
Oh, what can I givе him, poor as I am?
If I were a shephеrd, oh, I would give a lamb
If I were a wise man I would do my part
Yet what I can I give him, I give to him my heart
