Listen to the Bells

I love the hap­py

hap­py Christ­mas time

The time that is so dear;

To hear the ring­ing of the mer­ry chime

That comes from far and near.

Listen to the bells

list­en to the bells;

Listen to the mer­ry

mer­ry Christ­mas bells;

Listen to the bells

listen to the bells;

Listen to the mer­ry

mer­ry Christ­mas bells.

I love to sing of how the Sav­ior came

To dwell up­on the earth;

How an­gels out up­on Ju­dea’s plain

Proclaimed His won­drous birth.

All glo­ry! glo­ry! be to God on high!

Was their ce­les­ti­al song;

Good will to men

and on the earth be peace

The joy­ful notes pro­long.

Then let us on this hap­py Christ­mas day

Sing prais­es to our king;

Let ev­ery heart and ev­ery tongue re­joice;

Let bells tri­umph­ant ring.
