- 1.
- Ring, ye bells, a merry chime,
- Ring the news to ev'ry clime,
- On this glorious Christmas morn,
- Christ our King, today was born.
- Joyful be our songs today,
- As we sing the angel's lay.
- "Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! in the Highest,"
- Sing Hosannas, Loud proclaim,
- Christ is born in Bethlehem.
- 2.
- Christmas bells are sounding clear,
- Our bless'd Lord doth now appear;
- In a lonely manger lies,
- Lord of the earth and Pparadise.
- Raise your voice in sweet accord,
- Christ forever be adored!
- "Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! in the Highest,"
- Sing Hosannas, Loud proclaim,
- Christ is born in Bethlehem.
- 3.
- Ring out tones both loud and clear,
- David's son doth now appear;
- Angel choirs announce His birth,
- Singing "Peace, good will on earth."
- Loud responsive let us sing,
- Glory to our Lord and King,
- "Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! in the Highest,"
- Sing Hosannas, Loud proclaim,
- Christ is born in Bethlehem.
- 4.
- Ring, Oh ring a merry chime,
- Ring the news to ev'ry clime,
- How the wise men from afar,
- Follow'd Bethl'hem's radiant star:
- Rais'd their voice in sweet accord,
- Sang their praises to the Lord,
- "Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! in the Highest,"
- Sing Hosannas, Loud proclaim,
- Christ is born in Bethlehem.
