1 Chime, sweet bells of Christmas time,
Chime so sweet, or chime so low,
Chime in carol or in rhyme,
Merry bells across the snow.

Refrain:
Chime, chime, merrily chime,
Now in carol or in rhyme;
Sing, sing, cheerily sing,
Christmas carols sweet.

2 Shining star, a pathway make
To our hearts, and, free from sin,
Holy angels of God’s love
May descend and enter in. [Refrain]

3 Chime, chime, chime, chime, sweetly chime,
As we come or as we go;
May the music of Christ’s name
Chime with bells across the snow. [Refrain]
