This
familiar Christmas carol
is given an ethereal
setting by Brian L.
Hanson. Supported by a
gentle, lilting
accompaniment, the
strains of 'Still, Still,
Still' interweave in both
the accompaniment and
choral parts. Soaring
vocal lines, rich
harmonies, and
imaginative text painting
point to the wonder and
mystery of Christmas.
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.
Heaven cannot hold
Him,
Nor
earth
sustain;
Hea
v'n and earth shall flee
away
When He
comes to
reign;
In
the bleak midwinter,
A stable
place
sufficed
The
Lord God
Almighty,
Je
sus Christ.
Still, still,
still,
One
can hear the falling
snow.
For
all is hushed, the world
is
sleeping,
Ho
ly star its vigil
keeping.
Sti
ll, still,
still,
One
can hear the falling
snow.
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—
W
hat can I give
Him?
Give my
heart.
