Green Grows The Holly |
Green grows the holly |
And so does the ivy |
Though winter blasts winds na’er so high |
Green grows the holly |
Gay are the flowers |
Hedgerows and the ploughhands |
The days grow long, longer in the sun |
So soft fall the showers |
Mmm |
Full gold the harvest |
And grain for your labor |
With God must work for daily bread |
Or else, man, we’ll starve |
Fast fall the shed leaves |
Russet and yellow |
But resting buds are smug and safe |
Where swung the dead leaves |
Swung the dead leaves |
Green grows the holly |
And so does the ivy |
The God of life can never die |
And hope, says the holly |
Green grows the holly |
Oh |
Green grows the holly |
So does the ivy |
