Joy-Bells Ringing, Children Singing,
Fill The Air With Music Sweet
Joyful Measure, Guileless Pleasure,
Make The Chain Of Song Complete.

Joy-Bells Joy-Bells
Never, Never Cease Your Ringing !
Children ! Children
Never, Never Cease Your Singing !
List, List, The Song That Swells
Joy-Bells ! Joy-Bells

Joy-Bells Ringing, Children Singing,
Hark Their Voices Loud And Clear,
Breaking O’er Us, Like A Chorus,
From A Purer, Happier Sphere.

Earth Seems Brighter, Hearts Grow Lighter,
As The Gladsome Melody
Charms Our Sadness Into Gladness,
Pealing, Pealing Joyfully.

Joy-Bells Nearer Sound, And Clearer,
When The Heart Is Free From Care;
Skies Are Cheering, And We’re Hearing
Joy-Bells Ringing Everywhere.
