sRing happy bells across the snow,

ling out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out slowly dying cause,
Ard ancient forms of party strife,
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring 4 the want, the care, the sin,
The faithless GOODNESS Of the times,
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out aIsA>aride in place and blood,
The civic j spite;
Ring in the 10y - and right,
Ring in the Eihon love of good.
Ring old shapes Of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold,
Ring out the thousand wars OF old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Bling in the Christ that is to be.
