O ye Ice and Snow, bless ye the Lord; praise Him and magnify Him for ever.
Bless ye the Lord, O Ice and Snow,
And shine and sparkle in His sight;
Give to the earth a mantle white,
Which like Christ's seamless coat shall glow,
The righteousness of saints to show,
Spotless, and fair, and pure as light:
Bless ye the Lord, O Ice and Snow,
And shine and sparkle in His sight.
And shine and sparkle in His sight;
Give to the earth a mantle white,
Which like Christ's seamless coat shall glow,
The righteousness of saints to show,
Spotless, and fair, and pure as light:
Bless ye the Lord, O Ice and Snow,
And shine and sparkle in His sight.
Though frozen rills may cease to flow,
Let Love's free stream be at its height;
And let Peace sit by firesides bright
And cheerly sing, while tempests blow,
“Bless ye the Lord, O Ice and Snow,
And shine and sparkle in His sight.”
Let Love's free stream be at its height;
And let Peace sit by firesides bright
129
“Bless ye the Lord, O Ice and Snow,
And shine and sparkle in His sight.”
