Wildwood Carol Lyrics

Sing o the wild wood, the green hollyThe silent river and barren treeThe humble creatures that no man seesSing O the wild woodA weary journey one winter's nightNo hope of shelter, no rest in sightWho was the creature that bore Mary?A simple donkeyAnd when they came into Bethl'hem townThey found a stable to lay them downFor their companions that Christmas nightAn ox and an assAnd then an angel came down to earthTo bear the news of the Saviour's birthThe first to marvel were shepherds poorAnd sheep with their lambsSing O the wild wood
