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.
Let the jingle bells all ring.
Hail, hail the Holly King!
In the whiskey 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 is 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 spirit 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! Hear the children sing
Glory to the Holly King.
Let the jingle bells all ring.
Hail, hail the Holly King!
