Christina Georgina Rossetti - A Christmas Carol

Christina Georgina Rossetti - A Christmas Carol

In the bleak mid-winter br Frosty wind made moan, br Earth stood hard as iron, br Water like a stone; br Snow had fallen, snow on snow, br Snow on snow, br In the bleak mid-winter br Long ago. br br br Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him, br Nor earth sustain; br Heaven and earth shall flee away br When He comes to reign: br In the bleak mid-winter br A stable-place sufficed br The Lord God Almighty br Jesus Christ. br br br Enough for Him whom cherubim br Worship night and day, br A breastful of milk br And a mangerful of hay; br Enough for Him whom angels br Fall down before, br The ox and ass and camel br Which adore. br br br Angels and archangels br May have gathered there. br Cherubim and seraphim br Thronged the air, br But only His mother br In her maiden bliss br Worshipped the Beloved br With a kiss.
