"Behold, a virgin with child, shall bring forth a son,
They'll call his name Emmanuel, God with us" now as one.
(Long bell solo)
The star had led the shepherds to the place where Jesus lay.
A savior born in Bethlehem, upon a Christmas Day
The wise men that had followed to witness this holy place.
Knelt before the true king, humbled in his grace.
(Refrain).
Ring the bells ye faithful, ring both far and near.
Ring the bells ye faithful, ring for all to hear.
The babe He is our shepherd, and our one true king
So ring the bells ye faithful, let the bells all ring
The choirs of angels trumpet, proclaiming to the world
Born this day's a savior, a gift of grace unfurled
Fall to your knees in glory, for all too humbly pray.
For blessed are the faithful, upon this Christmas Day.
(Refrain)
The Virgin Mother Mary, and Joseph the family sire
Endured the scorn of others, for belief in something higher
Their Child, He changed the world, upon his humble birth.
Revealing a path to heaven, and peace to all on earth.
(Refrain)
As man would soon discover, the errors of his ways
And find a place of solace, in His Christmas grace
For God so loved his people, hearing their pleading calls
He brought his Son before us, the greatest gift of all.
