Christmas Songs ‎#17

17. Ring On, Mery Bells

1 Praise the Lord with carols of sweetest joy,
Send them over hills and dells;
Let the gospel story our tongues employ,
Keep on ringing merry bells.

Chorus:
Let the bells, the merry bells,
Echo a joyful song each day
For of love they sweetly tell
Unto the world the living way;
Ring glad bells, for ever ring,
Till ev'ry heart with rapture swells,
O what joy to us they bring,
Keep on ringing merry bells.

2 Let us join in praising the holy One,
Ev'ry fear He sweetly quells;
Till He speaks in heaven His glad "well done"
Keep on ringing merry bells. [Chorus]

3 Praise His love abounding, s full and free,
Till with joy each heart it swells;
Giving out the message from Calvary,
Keep on ringing merry bells. [Chorus]
