Ding-dong merrily on high

In heav'n the bells are ringing

Ding-dong verily the sky

Is riv'n with angel singing

E'en so here below, below

Let steeple bells be swungen

And "Io, io, io!"

By priest and people sungen

Pray you, dutifully prime

Your matin chime, ye ringers

May you beautifully rime

Your evetime song, ye singers

Gloria

Hosanna in excelsis!
