Ding dong merrily on High

1) Ding dong merrily on high,
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky
Is riv'n with angel singing

Ref.: Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!

2) E'en so here below, below,
Let steeple bells be swungen,
And "Io, io, io!"
By priest and people sungen

3) Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers,
May you beautifully rhyme
Your eve'time song, ye singers
