Oh The Prickle Holly Bush Lyrics

Tommy Makem Oh The Prickle Holly Bush

A choir of angels sing
Glory to God on high
And Mary in a stable dark
Sings lullaby
Chorus:
Oh, the prickle holly bush
As sharp as any thorn
And Mary bore our Saviour King
On Christmas in the morn
Oh, see the Baby King
In a cold stable lie

While the Virgin Mother Mary
Sings lullaby
Chorus
The wise men from the east
Followed the star in the sky
To where Mary, at the manger-throne
Sings lullaby
Chorus
Oh, sing the Saviour's praise
And let us all draw nigh
To the stall where the Virgin Mother
Sings lullaby
Chorus
