All across the virgin snow

And through the naked trees

On a cold winter's night

His song is on the breeze

Where the moonlight paints the frost

Upon the robin's song

He's come a-calling for us all

Now the summer's gone!



Hark! Hear the children sing

Glory to the Holly King



In the whisky and in the wine

He is here this Yule-tide time

A-dancing in the home-fire flames

A-dancing, singing, playing games

When the prayers are to the East

He is with us at the feast

His crown is nailed to the door

He's with us forevermore!



Hark! Hear the children sing

Glory to the Holly King

Let the jingle bells all ring

Hail, hail the Holly King



Underneath the mistletoe

He is in all lover's hearts

He fans the flames of desire

'Tis he who fires Cupid's darts

He is in all children's dreams

Dressed in red or dressed in green

Riding on the astral sleigh

He's the spririt of the day!



Hark! Hear the children sing

Glory to the Holly King

Let the jingle bells all ring

Hail, hail the Holly King



Hark! Hear the children sing

Glory to the Holly King

Let the jingle bells all ring

Hail, hail the Holly King



Hark! Now hear the children sing

Glory to the Holly King

Let the jingle bells all ring

Hail, hail the Holly King
