What Child Is This/The Holly And The Ivy (Medley / Remastered 2006)
What child is this, who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The babe, the Son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come, peasant, king, to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The babe, the Son of Mary
La, la (la)
La, la, la (la)
La, la (la)
La, la, la
The holly and the ivy, when they are both full-grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The holly bears the crown
The rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir
La, la (la)
La, la, la (la)
La, la (la)
La, la, la
The holly bears are blossomed as white as lily flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Savior
The rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The babe, the Son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come, peasant, king, to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud
The babe, the Son of Mary
La, la (la)
La, la, la (la)
La, la (la)
La, la, la
The holly and the ivy, when they are both full-grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The holly bears the crown
The rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir
La, la (la)
La, la, la (la)
La, la (la)
La, la, la
The holly bears are blossomed as white as lily flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Savior
The rising of the sun, and the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir
