Loreena McKennitt - In The Bleak Midwinter

"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...

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 —
Give my heart."

Christina Rossetti

Boy do i miss this song! They just don't play it over here. One Christmas is actually won the "favorite carol" on Classic Fm, I think because they played it over an dover and over again.

Merry Christmas Beth!!!! have a lovely day!
