Ding Dong! Merrily on High

Ding dong! merrily on high

In heav'n the bells are ringing:

Ding dong! verily the sky

Is riv'n with Angel singing.


Gloria,

Hosanna in excelsis!

E'en so here below, below,

Let steeple bells be swingen,

And "Io, io, io!"

By priest and people singen.


Gloria,

Hosanna in excelsis!

Pray you, dutifully prime

Your matin chime, ye ringers;

May you beautifully rime

Your evetime song, ye singers.


Gloria,

Hosanna in excelsis!
