The only macro you need is your Nature's Swiftness + Healing Wave macro.
Riptide + LHW with Chain Heal for aoe damage is pretty much the way to go (use riptide to keep your tidal waves buff up if you're not needing to cast chain heal).
For glyphs, I like Chain Heal, Lesser Healing Wave, and Mana Tide totem (just to help out my group... I don't think it's necessarily needed for my own personal use).

If you keybind spells you can use this to ease the application of ES on a tank. Just make the tank your focus and use the macro.

It's very easy to get into LHW and/or CH spam, but really all of our heals come in handy.
Gen X is correct that NS+HW is a fantastic macro, although NS+CH can also be extremely helpful in an emergency situation where several people need heals.
One of the best things to do is learn how to use Riptide and the Tidal Waves effect. RT is excellent as our only instant heal (outside of NS) and as a HoT, although I frequently see most of the HoT end up being overheal. A fantastic use for it is, if the tank is taking lots of damage and you need to focus on him, throwing RT on one of the damaged DPSers and letting that take care of them while you go back to the tank.
Even better though is RT's use to trigger Tidal Waves, which can give your LHW a boost to crit and (best of all, IMO) drastically reduce HW's cast time, to the point where it shouldn't take much longer than LHW. Hopefully you won't need such a big heal too often, but it's very handy to have when you do need it.
As for glyphs, you're not 80 yet so you should just have two major slots. LHW is a no brainer. You're healing 5-mans, you're going to be doing a lot of tank healing, and unless you're doing something wrong that tank will have Earth Shield, so it'll make LHW even better than it already is. As for the second one, you have a couple different options. Earth Shield is a very solid glyph, I don't think you can go wrong there (particularly as you may not have talented into Improved Shields in the Enh tree yet). Water Mastery is a good choice too, particularly if you have mana problems, which you might depending on the quality of your gear.
Another possible choice, and a glyph I'm quite fond of but many aren't, is HW. It's situational though. Ask yourself two questions. 1) Do I use HW fairly frequently? 2) Do I sometimes forget to heal myself? If the answer is yes to both, HW's a very nice glyph. If not, there are plenty of options.
