THE HOLLY AND THE IVY 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 all in the choir The holly bears a blossom As white as the lily flower And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To be our sweet Savior The holly bears a berry As red as any blood And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To do poor sinners good The holly bears a prickle As sharp as any thorn And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ On Christmas day in the morn 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 collected by Pat Shaw and Maud Karpeles in Herefordshire Recorded on Langstaff- Christmas Revels @Xmas @religion @plant filename[ HOLLYIVY TUNE FILE: HOLLYIVY CLICK TO PLAY TUNE FILE: HOLLYIVY.2 CLICK TO PLAY SOF |
