(sopranos)
Hark! how the bells
Sweet silver bells
All seem to say,
"Throw cares away."
Christmas is here
Bringing good cheer
To young and old
Meek and the bold
(Altos)
Ding, dong, ding, dong
(Tenors)
Ding, dong, ding, dong
That is their song
With joyful ring
All caroling
One seems to hear
Words of good cheer
From ev'rywhere
Filling the air
(tenors)
O how happy are their tones
(rest of people)
O how they pound
raising the sound
O'er hill and dale
telling the tale
(together)
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
(sopranos)
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
(rest of people)
Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding, dong, ding, ding, dong
On, on they send
On without end
Their joyful tone
To ev'ry home
(repeat from the beginning)
(sopranos)
Ding, dong, ding, dong.
(bass)
