Down In Yon Forest Lyrics

Down in yon forest there stands a hall
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
It's covered all over with purple and pall
And I love my lord Jesus above anything

A knight there lies upon a bed
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
All scarlet's the coverlet over him spread
And I love my lord Jesus above anything

At the end of that bed there grows a thorn
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
It blooms ere it blossoms the day he was born And I love my lord Jesus above anything

Under that bed there runs a flood
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
A half it runs water, the other runs blood
And I love my lord Jesus above anything

And over that place the moon shines bright
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
To tell that our saviour was born this night
And I love my lord Jesus above anything
