Easter Bells (Miles)

Easter bells

East­er bells

Pealing forth the mes­sage

Of a ris­en king;

Easter bells

joy­ous bells

With your mu­sic all the world shall ring.

To and fro they swing in mer­ry chime

Easter bells

joy­ous bells

Tell the story of the East­er time

O what glad­ness your mu­sic tells.

Easter bells

East­er bells

Now the world is free from

Terror of the tomb;

Easter bells

joy­ous bells

Jesus

ris­en

drives away its gloom.

Easter bells

East­er bells

Tell the sto­ry of a

Life with Christ on high;

Easter bells

joy­ous bells

Tell that Je­sus lives

no more to die.

Easter bells

East­er bells

Ring a pro­mise of a

Life be­yond the tomb;

Easter bells

joy­ous bells

Jesus

ris­en

has dis­pelled all gloom.
