lyrics

The holly and the ivy, when they're both fully grown, of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown. And the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer and the playing of the merry organ sweet singing in the choir.

And the holly bears a blossom as white as lilly's flower, just as Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Savior. And the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer and the playing of the merry organ sweet singing in the choir.

And the holly bears a berry as red as any blood, just as Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Savior. And the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer and the playing of the merry organ sweet singing in the choir.

The holly and the ivy, when they're both fully grown, off all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown.
