Ding dong merrily on high,
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky

Is riv'n with angel singing.

Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!

Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!

E'en so here below, below,

Let steeple bells be swungen,
And "Io, io, io!"
By priest and people sungen.


Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!


Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers;

May you beautifully rhyme
Your evetime song, ye singers.


Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!


Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Hosanna in excelsis!
