Summer has arrived,
Loudly Sing, cuckoo!
The seed is growing
And the meadow is blooming,
And the wood is coming into leaf now,
Sing, cuckoo!
The ewe is bleating after her lamb,
The cow is lowing after her calf;
The bullock is prancing,
The billy-goat farting
Sing merrily, cuckoo!
Cuckoo, cuckoo,
You sing well, cuckoo,
Never stop now.
Sing, cuckoo, now; Sing, cuckoo;
Sing, cuckoo; Sing, cuckoo, now! less

O clap your hands, all ye people;

shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
For the Lord most high is terrible.
He is a great King over all the earth.
God is gone up with a shout,
the Lord with the sound of the trumpet.
Sing ye praises to God; sing praises.
Sing praises to our King; sing praises.
For God is the King of all the earth.
Sing ye praises every one that hath understanding.
God reigneth over the heathen.
God sitteth upon the throne of His holiness.
Sing praises unto our King. Sing praises.
Sung at Canterbury Cathedral during our Royal School of Church music Summer Course in 1986, under Martin How.
I (David W Solomons) was one of the altos.
