‘Ding dong merrily on high’ vanuit de Laurenskerk in Rotterdam
Wat zag de Laurenskerk in Rotterdam er toch schitterend uit tijdens onze Kerstproms en wat klonk de muziek er prachtig! Het Ars Musica Kamerkoor zong daar ‘Ding dong merrily on high’. Kijk en luister je mee naar dit bekende kerstlied?
Liedtekst
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 eve'time song, ye singers
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
In excelsis, in excelsis, in excelsis,
hosanna in excelsis!
