Ding dong, merrily on high In heaven the bells are ringing Ding dong, verily the sky Is riven with angel singing Gloria, hosannah in excelsis! Gloria, hosannah in excelsis! Even so here below, below Let steeple bells be swungen And io, io, io By priest and people sungen Gloria, hosannah in excelsis! Gloria, hosannah in excelsis! Pray you dutifully prime Your matin chime, ye ringers May you beautifully rhyme Your evetime song, ye singers Gloria, hosannah in excelsis! Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
