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.
Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him. Nor earth sustain:
Heaven and earth shall flee away when He comes to reign;
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable place sufficed the Lord God Almighty Jesus Christ.
Christina Rosetti (1830-1894)...A Christmas Carol
