Ding Dong Dawning!

orchidee



Tune: Branle de l'Officiel

('Ding, dong! merrily in high')

*********

Here bells make joyful ding-dong

And people sing cheerful song

Fro the Christ-child, He new-born

Now shines our redemption morn

 

Chorus

A--ll--e--lu--ia! Let earth and heaven rejoice

A--ll--e--lu--ia! Praise the Lord now with one voice

 

Light and life and health He brings

Not mourn for e'er, but all sings

Of His grace to all mankind

Salvation in Him we find - Chorus

 

Christ full human, full divine

A son born of David's line

Worship Him in stable there

You may in His blessings share - Chorus

 

Splendour of God's glory bright

He of the world its true Light

Darkness shall o'ercome it ne'er

Golden beams shine strong and fair - Chorus

 

Help us share the gospel news

We not first choose, you us choose

To go forth, bear fruit to last

Going forward, leave the past - Chorus
