15332. Carolling On

1 Carolling on, carolling on,
O herald ye the Christmas morn!
Carolling on, carolling on,
Ye seraphs sing to earth a Savior born;
Joyfully sing, joyfully sing,
Your praises ’neath the starlit sky.
Herald the Holy One,
Herald the Father’s Son;
All glory to God on high.

Refrain:
Hail Him, hail Him,
Herald Him the Prince immortal!
Star-crowned throng, O sing ye;
Golden harps, O ring ye;
Hail Him, hail Him,
Singing ’neath the radiant sky.
Herald the Holy One,
Herald the Father’s Son;
All glory to God on high.

2 Carolling on, carolling on,
O come ye from the courts above,
Carolling on, carolling on,
The tidings tell afar of peace and love.
Joyfully sing, joyfully sing,
For gladness unto earth is nigh;
Herald the Daystar bright,
Herald the Lord of light;
All glory to God on high. [Refrain]

2 Carolling on, carolling on,
Your anthems thro’ the years resound;
Carolling on, carolling on,
O blessèd Christmas praise still sweetly sound;
Joyfully sing, joyfully sing,
And earth shall echo glad reply;
Herald the promised Lord,
Blessèd incarnate Word;
All glory to God on high. [Refrain]
