Deck the Halls
Deck the hall with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
'Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
While I tell of Yuletide treasure,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Sing we joyous all together,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la la la la la.
Fa la la la la la la la la.
'Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la la la la la.

Ding Dong! Merrily on High
Ding dong! Merrily on high, in heav’n the bells are ringing.
Ding dong! Verily the sky is riv’n with angels singing.
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
And on earth below, below, let steeple bells be swungen,
And i-o, i-o, i-o, by priest and people sungen.
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis!
Pray you dutifully prime your matin chime, you ringers,
May you beautifully rhyme your eve-time song, you singers.
