The Cherry Tree Carol Lyrics

[00:13.626]
[00:17.052]	Joseph was an old man,
[00:20.618]	And an old man was he,
[00:25.735]	When he married Virgin Mary,
[00:29.469]	The Queen of Galilee. ——
[00:33.310]
[00:35.064]	As Mary and Joseph
[00:38.288]	Were walking one day
[00:43.397]	To an orchard of cherry trees
[00:47.135]	They chanced for to stray.
[00:50.888]
[00:58.992]	Then Mary said to Joseph,
[01:02.774]	So meek and so mild,
[01:08.055]	“Pick me some cherries, Joseph,
[01:11.950]	For I am with child.”
[01:15.963]
[01:17.199]	But Joseph flew angry,
[01:20.779]	So angry flew he,
[01:25.870]	“Let the father of your baby
[01:29.796]	Gather cherries for thee.”
[01:33.819]
[01:49.004]	Then up spoke Lord Jesus
[01:52.670]	From in his mother's womb,
[01:57.013]	“Bow low down, cherry trees,
[02:00.124]	Bow down to the ground.”
[02:03.642]
[02:05.089]	And the cherry trees all bowed down,
[02:08.780]	Bowed low to the ground,
[02:13.946]	And Mary gathered cherries
[02:17.787]	While Joseph stood round.
[02:21.718]
[02:26.335]	Then Joseph he kneeled down
[02:30.105]	All upon his right knee,
[02:35.208]	“Come tell me, pretty baby,
[02:38.888]	When your birthday shall be.”
[02:42.945]
[02:47.824]	“On the fifth day of January
[02:51.514]	My birthday shall be,
[02:56.632]	And the stars in the heaven
[03:00.395]	Shall all bow down to me.”
[03:05.038]
[03:07.532]
