The Holly and the Ivy


    The holly and the ivy when they are both full grown
    Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown

    Refrain:
    The rising of the sun and the running of the deer
    The playing of the merry organ, sweet singing in the choir

    The holly bears a blossom as white as lily flower
    And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet savior

    Refrain

    The holly bears a berry as red as any blood
    And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to do poor sinners good

    Refrain

    The holly bears a prickle as sharp as any thorn
    And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ on Christmas Day in the morn

    Refrain

    The holly bears a bark as bitter as any gall
    And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ for to redeem us all

    Refrain
