In the Bleak Midwinter

Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti; John Andrew Storey Hymnal: WinS1996 #84 (1996) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Tune Title: CRANHAM Lyrics: 1 In the bleak midwinter, Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, Long ago. 2 Christ a homeless stranger, So the gospels say, Cradled in a manger And a bed of hay; In the bleak midwinter Stableplace sufficed Mary and her baby, Jesus Christ. 3 Once more child and mother Weave their magic spell, Cradled in a manger And a bed of hay; In the bleak midwinter, In this world of pain, Where our hearts are open Love is born again. 4 What can I give him poor as I am. If I were a shepherd I would bring a lamb. If I were a wise man I would do my part, Yet what I can I give him? I can give my heart. Topics: Christmas; Story of Jesus; Love; Nativity; Winter

The Spacious Firmament on High

The unwearied sun from day to day does its Creator's powers display; and publishes to every land the work of an almighty hand. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail, the moon takes up the wondrous tale, and nightly to the listening earth repeats the story of its birth; whilst all the stars that round it burn, and all the planets in their turn, confirm the tidings, as they roll and spread the truth from pole to pole. 3 What though in solemn silence all move round the dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound amid their radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, and utter forth a glorious voice; forever singing as they shine, “The hand that made us is divine.” Topics: Creation; God's power; Nature; Praise; Singing (or Song) Scripture: Psalm 19:1-6
