SANS DAY CAROL

Now the holly has a berry as white as the milk
And Mary bore a baby and wrapped him in silk
And Mary bore our Jesus our Saviour for to be

And the first thing in the greenwood it was the holly
Holly, holly and the first thing in the greenwood it was the holly

Now the holly has berry as black as the coal
And Mary bore our Jesus who died for us all
And Mary bore our Jesus our Saviour for to be

Now the holly has a berry as green as the grass
And Mary bore our Jesus who died on the cross
And Mary bore our Jesus our Saviour for to be

Now the holly has a berry all crimson and red
And Mary bore our Jesus who rose from the dead
And Mary bore our Jesus our Saviour now is he
