The Holly And The Ivy Lyrics

[Verse]
Oh, the holly and the ivy
Now they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The holly tree bears the crown

[Chorus]
Oh, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing all in the choir

[Verse]
Oh, the holly tree bears a blossom
As white as any milk
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
All wrapped up in silk

[Chorus]
Oh, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing all in the choir

[Verse]
Oh, the holly tree bears a berry
As bitter as any gall
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
For to redeem us all

[Chorus] Oh, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing all in the choir

[Verse]
Oh, the holly tree bears a prickle
As sharp as a thorn
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
On Christmas day in the morn

[Chorus]
Oh, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing all in the choir

[Verse]
Oh, the holly and the ivy
Now they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The holly tree bears the crown

[Chorus]
Oh, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing all in the choir
