Ring the Bells (Mack)

lyricist: Irvin Mack, 1900
Composer: Lincoln Hall

The bells of Heav’n are ring­ing

Are tell­ing of the King;

Who came sal­va­tion bring­ing

And heal­ing in His wing.

He came to lift op­press­ion

To ban­ish sin and wrong;

He came

our light

to scat­ter night

And give to earth a song.

O ring ye bells

ye mer­ry bells.

O ring

ye bells of Heav­en

Re-echo loud and long;

Let un­to men be giv­en

A new and hap­py song.

O ring aloud in glad­ness

Let heav­en­ly joy be known;

O earth

awake

this joy par­take

Claim Je­sus as your own.

O ring

ye bells of Heav­en

Upon this day of cheer;

O ring the glo­ri­ous tid­ings

For Christ the King is here.

Re-echo o’er the hill­tops

Resounding ev­ery­where;

The Sav­ior dear comes hearts to cheer:

His king­dom earth may share.
