Brightest day of all the year.
Hear the joy-bells ring­ing, ring­ing,
Fell the in­cense down the air;
A mes­sage sweet and low—
Pealing out the old, sweet sto­ry,
For the night of death has passed away,
Our Je­sus lives who once was dead,
The choirs of Heav’n are sing­ing,
The choirs of Heav’n are sing­ing,
Bells are ring­ing, voic­es sing­ing,
⁠On the lit­tle face be­low,
Singing praise all our days for the King ab­ove.
Thy light is come, thy king ap­pears!
Glad news, glad news, ev­ery­where keep sing­ing,
Is a roll­ing wave of peace.

swing­ing

Ringing, ring­ing, swing­ing ev­ery­where;
Hear the child­ren’s voic­es sing­ing,
To the sound of mu­sic rare.
From out the long ago.
Unto earth is born a Sav­ior,
Christ, the Lord of Life, is ris’n to­day.
Thro’ all the world, O an­gel fair,
As we go march­ing home.
As we go march­ing home.
God the Fa­ther, God the Son,
⁠Jarless, noise­less, safe and slow;
Pealing out a glad­some lay as forth we go;
Breaks a new dawn—the thou­sand years.
Praises on this East­er day.
In the cold De­cem­ber air,
