      EmGF#mGA
Intro     
Bm7 G Bm7 G
D                Bm          G                   A
In the bleak mid  -  winter,  icy   wind   made    moan
Angels  and  arch - angels,   may have gathered there.
What then can I   give Him,   empty   as    I    am
D                    Bm         G      A       D
Earth stood hard as iron,      water  like a stone
Cherubim      and      seraphim rising in the air.
If   I   were   a   shepherd,  I would bring a lamb
Em           F#m Gmaj7    A    Bm7     Em       Asus4 A
Snow on snow had fall  -  en,  snow on snow on snow
Oh   but   only   Ma  -  ry    in her maiden  bliss
If  I  were   a  wise  -  man, I would know my part

       G     Gm      D E7 Em7   A   D  GDG
(1st)                                    
       In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago

(2nd)                                       /     
       Worshipped the beloved with a mother's kiss.
Em        F#m Gmaj7 A   Bm7     Em       Asus4 A
Heaven cannot hold Him, nor can earth sustain
G          Gm           D     E7  Em7     A       D     G D G
Heaven and earth shall fall away when He comes to reign
       G     Gm      D   E7Em7   A      D  GDG   EmGF#mGAD
(3rd)                                          -      
       What then can I give Him; I must give my heart
