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 crownOh, the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

The playing of the merry organ

Sweet singing in the choirThe holly bears a blossom

As white as lily flower

And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ

To be our dear SaviorOh, the rising of the sun

And the running of the deer

The playing of the merry organ

Sweet singing in the choir
