9187. The Christmas Bells Peal Merrily

1 The Christmas bells peal merrily,
Ringing, ringing
And children’s voices, cheerily send
Praise to God.

Refrain:
Ring and sing the precious story,
Tell that Christ the Lord was born,
Born amid the wondrous glory,
On this happy morn.

2 Sing songs of praise to God above,
Sing them, sing them,
Bring offerings of faith and love
This holy day. [Refrain]

3 Once more your voices swell in song,
Praising, praising,
Hosannas from the children-throng
Unto the Lord. [Refrain]
