CAROL OF THE BELLS

 

Pulled with violence

To break the silence

Choring, drawing

 

Mechanism priming

Ready for chiming

Banging, clanging

 

Momentum gaining

Timbers straining

Creaking, speaking

 

Mechanical timing

With rhythm climbing

Swaying, obeying

 

The peel resounding

A sound astounding

Ringing, singing

 

The call goes out

Around and about

Voicing, rejoicing

 

Come says the calling

Come one and all in

Morning, morning

 

Christ born this day

The Christmas bells say

Rejoicing, rejoicing
