FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS CAROL # 6 - DING DONG! MERRILY ON HIGH

 

DING DONG! MERRILY ON HIGH

Music and lyrics traditional

 

Ding Dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing;
Ding Dong! Verily the sky
Is riv'n with angels singing:
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis

 

E'en so here below, below,
let steeple bells be swungen,
And "Io, io, io!"

By priest and people sungen,
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis

 

Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers:
May you beautifully rhyme
Your evetime song, ye singers.
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis.
