[00:06.76]The holly and the ivy,
[00:11.24]When they are both full grown
[00:14.62]Of all the trees that are in the wood
[00:18.95]The holly bears the crown
[00:22.07]O the rising of the sun
[00:25.80]And the running of the deer
[00:30.13]The playing of the merry organ
[00:34.20]Sweet singing of the choir
[00:37.48]The holly bears a blossom
[00:41.48]As white as lily flower
[00:45.32]And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
[00:49.42]To be our sweet Saviour
[00:52.69]O the rising of the sun
[00:56.55]And the running of the deer
[01:00.38]The playing of the merry organ
[01:04.60]Sweet singing of the choir
[01:08.03]The holly bears a berry
[01:11.94]As red as any blood
[01:16.17]And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
[01:20.26]To do poor sinners good
[01:23.34]O the rising of the sun
[01:27.36]And the running of the deer
[01:31.64]The playing of the merry organ
[01:35.43]Sweet singing of the choir
[01:40.67]
[01:55.96]The holly bears a prickle
[01:59.57]As sharp as any thorn;
[02:02.98]And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
[02:07.24]On Christmas Day in the morn.
[02:10.13]O the rising of the sun
[02:14.26]And the running of the deer
[02:18.08]The playing of the merry organ
[02:22.34]Sweet singing of the choir
[02:25.78]The holly bears a bark
[02:29.72]As bitter as any gall;
[02:33.47]And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ
[02:37.76]For to redeem us all.
[02:40.98]O the rising of the sun
[02:44.96]And the running of the deer
[02:48.86]The playing of the merry organ
[02:53.06]Sweet singing of the choir
[02:56.49]The holly and the ivy
[03:00.51]Now both are full well grown,
[03:04.14]Of all the trees that are in the wood,
[03:08.46]The holly bears the crown.
[03:11.62]O the rising of the sun
[03:15.50]And the running of the deer
[03:19.35]The playing of the merry organ
[03:23.82]Sweet singing of the choir
[03:27.00]O the rising of the sun
[03:30.97]And the running of the deer
[03:34.78]The playing of the merry organ
[03:39.10]Sweet singing of the choir
[03:52.78]
[04:12.74]
