Christmas Day Gloria

Gloria for Christmas Day (tune: Ding Dong Merrily on High)

Glory! Merrily on high
In heaven the bells are ringing;
Glory! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing.
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis….

Peace to all throughout the earth
From heaven in the highest
Worship, thankfulness and praise
We sing to God our Father.
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis….

Jesus, Only Son of God
Our Lord and Lamb, Messiah,
Mercy, take away our sin,
And hear the prayer we offer.
Gloria, Hosanna in Excelsis….

  1. Love this I'm hoping we might use it too credited - we enjoyed last year's Advent wreath song.

  2. We will be using this again this year at our Midnight Mass. You should sign up with CCLI - I have earned enough in royalties to take my wife out for a meal!
