Intro Em G F#m G A
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

In the bleak midwinter, long and long ago
(2nd) G Gm D E7 Em7 A D Bm7 G A / D Bm7 Em A D
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
(3rd) G Gm D E7 Em7 A D G D G - Em G F#m G A D
What then can I give Him; I must give my heart
