lyrics

Ring out wild bells to wild sky
The flying clouds the frosty light
The year is dying in the night

Ring out the old ring in the new
Ring happy bells across the snow
The year is going let it go

Ring out the grief that saps the mind
For those that hear and see no more
Ring out the feud of the rich and poor

Ring out the slowly dying cause and
Ancient forms of strife
Ring in the nobler forms of life

I can hear a voice
I can see the light
Deep in this house I hear a reply
I open the door and carry it out
I open my heart and sing to the sky

Ring out the war’s despair
A simple faith fights coldness in our time
Ring out the mournful rhymes
But ring the full minstrel in

Ring out those who hide the face of love
The civic slander and the spite
Ring in the truth and right

Ring out the cowards with the hunters bow
Ring out hate and disease
Ring out the narrowing lust for gold
A thousand wars of old

Ring in a thousand years of peace
Ring in the valiant man and pray for the larger heart
The kinder hand
The darkness out of the land

Ring in the Christ that is to be
