DING DONG MERRILY ON HIGH

by - George Ratcliffe Woodward

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 excelsis!

E'en so here below,

let steeple bells be swungen,

And io, io, io,

by priest and people sungen.

Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!

Pray ye dutifully prime

your matin chime, ye ringers;

may ye beautifully rhyme

your evetime song, ye singers.

Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
