♫ Verse 1:
F                Dm     Gm     Bb        Gm    C7
In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan
F                   Dm    Bb    C7      F
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
Bb                       Dm    F     Bb    C
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, sno-o-ow on snow
F               Dm      Bb     C7     F
In the bleak midwinter, lo-ong time ago

♫ Verse 2:
     F                 Dm        Gm    Bb        Gm   C7
Our God, heaven cannot hold him, no-or earth sustain
F                      Dm        Bb      C7       F
Heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign
Bb                  Dm   F      Bb        C
In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed
    F            Dm      Bb   C7    F
The Lo-ord God almighty, Je-e-su-us Christ


♫ Verse 3:
F              Dm     Gm       Bb       Gm     C7
Angels and archangels may have gathered there
F              Dm     Bb       C7     F
Cherubim and seraphim thronged in the air
Bb               Dm  F      Bb     C
But his mother only, in her maiden bliss
F               Dm    Bb     C7  F
Worshiped the beloved wi-ith a-a kiss


♫ Verse 4:
F            Dm        Gm      Bb F  Gm   C7
Wha-at can I give him, poo-oor as I am?
F           Dm        Bb      C7      F
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb
Bb               Dm   F       Bb    C
If I were a wise man, I would do my part
F                Dm        Bb     C7   F
Yet what I can I give him: gi-ive my-y heart
