1 Join we all in cheerful song,
Happy, happy bells, Christmas bells;
Ever we His praise prolong,
Happy, happy Christmas bells.

Refrain:
Merry, merry, sing, O Christmas bells,
Happy bells, Christmas bells,
Merry, merry sing, O Christmas bells,
Happy, happy Christmas bells.

2 Happy hearts and voices raise,
Happy, happy bells, merry bells;
Unto Jesus lofty praise,
Happy, happy Christmas bells. [Refrain]

3 Hail to Him, the Christ-child born,
Happy, happy bells, merry bells;
As we sing this cheerful song,
Happy, happy Christmas bells. [Refrain]
