In the bleak midwinter, all creation groans
For a world in darkness frozen like a stone
Light is breaking, in a stable for a throne

If I were a wise man, I would travel far
If I were a shepherd, I would do my part
But poor as I am, I will give to Him my heart

And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
Unto us a Child is born
The King of kings and Lord of lords
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore

Here within a manger lies the One
Who builds the starry skies
This Baby born for sacrifice, Christ, the Messiah
Into our hopes, into our fears
The Savior of the world appears
The Promise of eternal years, Christ the Messiah

And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
Unto us a Child is born
The King of kings and Lord of lords
And He shall reign forevermore, forevermore
And He shall reign
