The Sabbath bell

Author: Fanny Church Hymnal: The Little Sower for Sabbath Schools #108 (1870) First Line: Listen to the sabbath bell Refrain First Line: Sweetly chiming, sabbath bell! Lyrics: 1 Listen to the sabbath bell, Sweetly shining through the dell; Calling children to the place Where they learn of Jesus' grace. Chorus: Sweetly chiming, sabbath bell! Children love thy music well, Sabbath bell, sabbath bell; Thou of holy things dost tell. 2 Teachers with their words so mild, Winning love from ev'ry child, Wait to greet us in the school With its gentle, loving rule. [Chorus] 3 There they tell of Jesus' love, Leaving his bright home above; Bearing all earth's pain and loss, Even dying on the cross. [Chorus] 4 And they tell us too how we May this loving Saviour see; How to walk the way he trod, Upward to the throne of God. [Chorus] 5 'Tis to this the chiming bells Call us as their music swells; To the school we haste away, On this holy sabbath day. [Chorus] Tune Title: [Listen to the sabbath bell]
