Chapel Bells

The Ringing Of chapel bells Resonating in tune On our favorite melodies, Especially those golden-oldie hymns, Harmonies for a hungry heart Singing Bells

Wonderfully penned Milt - "harmonies for a hungry heart" is a wonderful expression of the uplifting joy many of the "oldies" rouse. All of us have our favorites. Two of mine are "It Is Well With My Soul" and "Breathe on Me Breath of God" along with just about every Christmas carol ever written and many Easter songs! Congratulations! Thanks for bringing their joy into my day!

I love the flow, the tone, the tune, and the rolling lolling alliterative feel. ~ Bells, bells, bells! :) gw

Thanks, gw. I had no idea the shape would give this effect, but it seems to.
