The Joy Bells of Canaan

Author: Louis F. Mitchel Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 First Line: The joy-bells of Canaan send forth a glorious peal Refrain First Line: Hear the bells Lyrics: "1 The joy-bells of Canaan send forth a glorious peal, They banish all woe and bring in God’s blessed weal; I’m ravished with their music when none but God is near, And I hear them at daybreak, and at noon and night they’re clear. Refrain: Hear the bells! Hear the bells! They are pealing forth the glad anthem of the free. Hear the bells! Hear the bells! They are ringing out the glorious jubilee. 2 Peace comes to the sinner the moment he believes, Great joy is in Heaven as soon as he receives; But soon he longs for Canaan, with sighs he can’t repress, As still onward he journeys tow’rd the land he’ll soon possess. [Refrain] 3 The joy-bells of Canaan are sweetest to my ear; O harken, believer, press on where you can hear! One cadence of their music will thrill with joy your soul, And you’ll sing, leap and dance with shouts of joy you can’t control. [Refrain] 4 The saint has a belfry where heav’nly chimes are rung, And out from its windows float tunes by angels sung; No clang, nor clash, nor discord is heard from this blest tow’r, For the songs of redemption peal forth from hour to hour. [Refrain] 5 Each saint is a priest and has bells about his feet; Rich fruit intermingles and makes their ring most sweet, The holy and the holiest are open now to all, But we still need the bells, and the fruit prevents a fall. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [The joy-bells of Canaan send forth a glorious peal]
