Much to my regret the profider that hosted my webpages for more than 25 years has announced that after 1 July 2026 they end the hosting service. Therefore all my web pages have been moved to another provider, which means the base URL changes from https://josvg.home.xs4all.nl/ to http://www.josvg.dds.nl/. The current page can now be found here. |
Our God, heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign
In the bleak midwinter, a stable place sufficed
The Lord God almighty, Jesus Christ
Angels and archangels may have gathered there
Cherubim and seraphim thronged the air
But His mother only in her maiden bliss
Worshiped the Beloved with a kiss
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
Music & lyrics: traditional; adapted by Frank Peterson / Cartsen Heusmann
From: A Winter Symphony (2008).
Source of the lyrics: from the CD booklet, thanks to Andonut, with some corrections by me.
