KennittThe holly and the ivy |
|
When they are full grown, |
|
Of all the trees in the wood |
|
The holly bears the crown. |
|
The rising of the sun |
|
The running of the deer, |
|
The playing of the organ |
|
Sweet singing in the choir. |
|
The holly wears a blossom |
|
As white as any flower, |
|
And Mary bore sweet |
|
Jesus Christ |
|
To be our |
|
Saviour.The rising of the sun, |
|
The running of the deer, |
|
The playing of the organ, |
|
Sweet singing in the choir. |
|
The holly bears a berry |
|
As red as any blood, |
|
And Mary bore sweet |
|
Jesus Christ |
|
To do sinners good. |
|
The rising of the sun, |
|
The running of the deer, |
|
The playing of the organ, |
|
Sweet singing in the choir. |
|
The holly bears a prickle |
|
As sharp as any thorn, |
|
And Mary bore sweet |
|
Jesus Christ |
|
On Christmas |
|
Day in the morn. |
|
The rising of the sun, |
|
The running of the deer, |
|
The playing of the organ, |
|
Sweet singing in the choir. |
|
The holly bears a bark |
|
As bitter as any gall, |
|
And Mary bore sweet |
|
Jesus Christ, |
|
To redeem us all. |
