Lyrics
The holly and the ivy, the rising of the sun
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
Oh, 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 Saviour
Oh, 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 berry as red as ruby blood
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to do us sinners good
Oh, 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 prick as sharp as any thorn
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Saviour
Oh, the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ sweet singing in the choir
The holly and the ivy, the rising of the sun
The holly bears a bark as bitter as any gall
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ on Christmas Day in the morn
Oh, the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ sweet singing in the choir
The holly and the ivy, the rising of the sun
The holly bears a crown
The holly and the ivy, the both are full well grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown
The crown
