Ding Dong Merrily On High

Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heaven the bells are ringing
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing

‘Gloria, hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria, hosanna in excelsis!’

E’en so, here below, below,
Let steeple bells be swungen;
And i-o, i-o, i-o,
By priest and people sungen!

Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, you ringers;
May you beautifully rhyme
Your eve-time song, you singers:
