1 heard the Tells this Christmas day
With their chimes so sweet aud clear
They sent a message of love and joy
OF a newborn child sweet and dear.
They pealed song the Angels sing
Who came to live and sacrifice
And wash the sins of a world away.
oh precious child, Thy name we love
Who died that we might live;
We praise Thy name this Christmas day
Precious gifts to you We give.
"Oh peace on earth, good will to men,"
Thy words so sweet and dear;
They are echoed on turnout the world
By Yuletide bells sweet and clear.
So on this glorious Christmas day
When all in peace is still
We give our thoughts and souls to you
