Ding dong! Merrily on high,
in Heav’n the bells are ringing,
Ding dong! Verily the sky
is riv’n with angel singing.
Gloria, hosannah in the highest!
E’en so here below, below,
let steeple bells be swungen,
And io, io, io, by priest
and people sungen.
Gloria, hosannah in the highest!
Pray ye dutifully,
prime your matin chime, ye ringers;
May ye beautifully rime
your evetime song, ye singers.
Gloria, hosannah in the highest!
