The Bells

The bells

the bells

They ring this East­er morn­ing

The bells

the bells

To peal a mes­sage sweet;

The bells

the bells

Their tones

the earth ad­orn­ing

The bells

the bells

A ris­en king to greet.

Hear the ring­ing and the sing­ing

Of the East­er bells;

List the rhym­ing of the chim­ing

Happy news it swells.

Hallelujah

hal­le­lu­jah

Greet the ris­en King;

The bells

the bells

The joy­ous East­er bells.

Ring out

ring out

While earth is filled with won­der

Ring out

ring out

Far o’er the mount­ain height.

Ring out

ring out

The grave is torn asun­der;

Ring out

ring out

Send forth the East­er light.

Ye bells

ye bells

O tell the Sav­ior ris­en;

Ye bells

ye bells

O tell what an­gels say;

Ye bells

ye bells

For brok­en is the pri­son;

Ye bells

ye bells

The Lord arose to­day.
