Ding Dong Merrily On High by George Ratcliffe Woodward Lyrics

Ding dong dong
Ding dong dong…
Ding dong merrily on high
In heaven the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky
Is riven with angel singing
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!

E'en so here below, below
Let steeple bells be swung
And "Io, io, io!"
By priest and people singing
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!

Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chyme, ye ringers;
May you beautifully rime
Your evetime song, ye singers
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
