Verse 1: G Em C D In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan, G Em C D earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; G Em C D snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow, G Em C D G in the bleak midwinter, long ago. Verse 2: G Em C D Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain; G Em C D heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign: G Em C D in the bleak midwinter a stable-place sufficed G Em C D G the Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ. Verse 3: G Em C D What can I give him, poor as I am? If I were a shepherd G Em C D I would bring a lamb; if I were a wise man G Em C D I would do my part; yet what I can I give him: G Em C D G give my heart. Give my heart.
