Down In Yon Forest lyrics

Down in yon forest there's stands a hall

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

It's covered all over with purple and pall

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything



In that hall there stands a bed

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

It's covered all over with scarlet so red

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything



At the bed side there lies a stone

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Which the sweet virgin Mary knelt upon

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything



Under that bed there runs a flood

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

The one half runs water

And other runs blood

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything



At the bed's foot there grows a thorn

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Whichever blows blossoms

Since He was born

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything



Over that bed the moon shines bright

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Denoting our Saviour was born this night

And I love my Lord Jesus above everything
