The Manger Story

1 Bells of Christ­mas, swing!
Bells of Christ­mas, ring!
Throbbing high up in the stee­ple,
Bringing joy to all the peo­ple;
Children, join your lay,
On this Christ­mas day;
Tell again the won­drous sto­ry:
Christ the Lord is born!

2 Bells of Chris­tmas, swing!
Bells of Christ­mas, ring!
Sound afar the old sweet sto­ry
Of the man­ger Babe, whose glo­ry
Filled the ho­ly night
With the shin­ing light,
While the joy­ous an­gels car­oled,
"Christ the Lord is born!"

3 Bells of Christ­mas, swing!
Bells of Chris­tmas, ring!
Round the world your mu­sic fling­ing,
Keep the an­gels’ song still ring­ing;
Hearts with warm love thrill,
Joyously we trill
The glad song the an­gels taught us:
Christ the Lord is born!
