"See Amid the Winter's Snow"

118 E. Wheeling St.

From the window artist, Joseph Taylor: "This window is full of woodland critters you might 'See Amid the Winter's Snow', because none of them hibernates in wintertime. The concept was inspired in part by Beatrix Potter."


See, amid the winter's snow
Born for us on earth below
See, the tender Lamb appears
Promised from eternal years

REFRAIN:
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption's happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem

Say, ye holy shepherds, say
What your joyful news today
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?

[REFRAIN]

Sacred infant, all divine
What a tender love was thine
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this


[REFRAIN]
[REFRAIN]

Written by Edward Caswall, 1858.
Hymn tune by Sir John Goss, 1871.
