152. Ring, Ring, ye Merry Bells

1 Ring, ring, ye merry bells,
Ring your Christmas story;
“Peace on earth, good-will to men,”
Give to Christ the glory.

Refrain:
Ring it out from steeples high,
Send your message to the sky;
“Peace on earth, good-will to men,”
Ring it once again.

2 Ring, ring, ye Christmas bells,
Ring a kindly greeting
To all men, for on this day,
Hands and heats are meeting. [Refrain]

3 Glad be the Christmas songs,
Which our hearts are singing;
Keeping time to merry bells,
From the tower ringing. [Refrain]
