The Holly and Ivy

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2513 First Line: The Holly and the Ivy Refrain First Line: O the rising of the sun Lyrics: 1. The Holly and the Ivy Now both are full well grown, Of all the trees that are in the wood, The Holly bears the crown. Refrain O the rising of the sun, The running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the quire, Sweet singing in the quire. 2. The Holly bears a blossom, As white as lily-flower; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, To be our sweet Savior. [Refrain] 3. The Holly bears a berry, As red as any blood; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, To do poor sinners good. [Refrain] 4. The Holly bears a prickle, As sharp as any thorn; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, On Christmas Day in the morn. [Refrain] 5. The Holly bears a bark, As bitter as any gall; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, For to redeem us all. [Refrain] 6. The Holly and the Ivy Now both are full well grown, Of all the trees that are in the wood, The Holly bears the crown. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The Holly and the Ivy]

1840 - 1901 Person Name: Sir John Stainer Arranger of "[The holly and the ivy]" in Christmas in Song

Anonymous

Author of "The Holly and Ivy" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
