Verse 1
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heaven, bells are ringing
Ding dong! Cheerily the sky
Resounds angelic singing
Chorus
Glo- ria
Glo- ria
Hosanna in excelsis
Verse 2
Hear now all around the earth
The Christmas bells are ringing
Carols heralding His birth
All gathered here are singing
Bridge
Joyful Christmas bells now ring
Tolling death has lost its sting
Jesus is forever King
Celebrate, rejoice and sing
Verse 3
Pray our light will fully shine
And keep those chimes, a ringing
May it beautifully rhyme
This Christmas song, we’re singing
End
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heaven, bells are ringing
