''{{quote | text=An angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name of Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins." ([[Matthew1]] 1: 20-21)''}}

[[Category:Songs]]O the rising of the sun, the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ, sweat singing in the choir Sweet singing in the choir   The holly bears a blossom, as white as any flower And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, to be our sweet saviour O the rising of the sun, the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ, sweat singing in the choir Sweet singing in the choir   The holly bears a berry, as red as any blood And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, to do poor sinners good O the rising of the sun, the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ, sweat singing in the choir Sweet singing in the choir   The holy bears a prickle, as sharp as any thorn And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, on Christmas day in the morn O the rising of the sun, the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ, sweat singing in the choir Sweet singing in the choir {{songreturnto}}[[Christian music]] | [[Christmas carols]]
