The Tolling Bells

Hear the ringing of the bells.
Wake up!  Wake up ye citizens!
Rejoice!  Rejoice for ye are saved!

Angelic choir voices swell.
Join in fellowship with ye friends.
Hear the ringing of the bells.

Oh!  How I love the tolling bells.
Bewildered hearts our savior mends.
Rejoice!  Rejoice for ye are saved!

When Jesus comes, no one foretells.
On Him your tarnished soul depends.
Hear the ringing of the bells.

In your heart His spirit dwells.
Repent and be free of your sins.
Rejoice!  Rejoice for ye are saved!

All weary souls be compelled.
Wake up!  Wake up ye citizens!
Hear the ringing of the bells.
Rejoice!  Rejoice for ye are saved!
