Composed by：Traditional

Arranged by：John Rutter

Now the holly bears a berry as white as the milk

And Mary bore Jesus all wrapped up in silk

And Mary bore Jesus Christ our Saviour for to be

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Holly holly

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Now the holly bears a berry as green as the grass

And Mary bore Jesus who died on the 'cross

And Mary bore Jesus Christ our Saviour for to be

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Holly holly

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Now the holly bears a berry as black as the coal

And Mary bore Jesus who died for us all

And Mary bore Jesus Christ our Saviour for to be

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Holly holly

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Now the holly bears a berry as blood is it red

And thirsty a Saviour who rose from the dead

And Mary bore Jesus Christ our Saviour for to be

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly

Holly holly

And the first tree in the greenwood it was the holly
