On This Day Earth Shall Ring lyrics at Christmas-Songs.Org:
On this day earth shall ring
With the song children sing
To the Lord, Christ our King
Born on earth to save us
Him the Father gave us.
Chorus:
Id-e-o-o-o id-e-o-o-o
Id-e-o gloria in excelsis Deo!
His the doom, ours the mirth
When he came down to earth
Bethlehem saw his birth
Ox and ass beside him
From the cold would hide him.
Chorus:
Id-e-o-o-o id-e-o-o-o
Id-e-o gloria in excelsis Deo!
God's bright star, o'er his head
Wise Men three to him led
Kneel they low by his bed
Lay their gifts before him
Praise him and adore him.
Chorus:
Id-e-o-o-o id-e-o-o-o
Id-e-o gloria in excelsis Deo!
On this day angels sing
With their song earth shall ring
Praising Christ, heaven's King
Born on earth to save us
Peace and love he gave us.
Chorus:
Id-e-o-o-o id-e-o-o-o
Id-e-o gloria in excelsis Deo!
