Lyrics
1. The holly and the ivy
When they are both full grown
Of all trees that are in the wood
The holly bears the crown.
[Chorus:]
O, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir.
2. The holly bears a blossom
As white as lily flow'r
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
To be our dear Saviour
[Chorus:]
3. The holly bears a berry
As red as any blood
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
To do poor sinners good.
[Chorus]
4. The holly bears a prickle
As sharp as any thorn
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
On Christmas Day in the morn.
[Chorus]
5. The holly bears a bark
As bitter as the gall
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
For to redeem us all.
[Chorus]
