Glory’s kiss awoke the morning, Which beheld the Savior’s birth, And with nature’s rosy dawning, Peace, good-will, was born on earth. Heaven’s door rolled wide asunder, Through the gate of pearl and gem, Angels thronged to see this wonder, Earth held Heaven’s diadem. Refrain Ring, O bells, your loudest, sweetest, And ye children, shout with glee; Love the greatest, the completest, Christmas gave to you and me. Ring, O bells, ring, O bells, Ring your loudest, ring your sweetest, Ring, O bells, ring, O bells, Ring your sweetest Christmas bells! 2. Olive, myrtle, pine and laurel, Weave in beauteous garlands fair; While our voices raise a choral, Him our love and thanks to bear. But how poor the gifts we offer, Have we aught to give but them? Yea, our hearts we humbly proffer, Make them now a Bethlehem. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Glory's kiss awoke the morning]
