Of Zion ring today,
For passing souls those chimes are rung,
To guide them on their way.
Refrain:
Sweet chiming Zion bells,
Sweet chiming Zion bells,
They cheer our pleasant way,
Sweet chiming bells,
They cheer us on our pleasant way,
Sweet chiming bells.
2 And we who walk in earthly vales,
Their joyful music ring,
In melody divinely sweet,
So faint and yet so clear. [Refrain]
3 They call us home, not here our rest,
They softly seem to say;
Beyond the gates of Zion fair,
There shines a brighter day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [O’er heav’nly plains the golden chimes]
Sweet Zion Bells
