Easter bells, East­er bells,
Pealing forth the mes­sage
Of a ris­en king;
Easter bells, joy­ous bells,
With your mu­sic all the world shall ring.

Refrain

To and fro they swing in mer­ry chime,
Easter bells, joy­ous bells,
Tell the story of the East­er time,
O what glad­ness your music tells.

Easter bells, East­er bells,
Now the world is free from
Terror of the tomb;
Easter bells, joy­ous bells,
Jesus, ris­en, drives away its gloom.

Refrain

Easter bells, East­er bells,
Tell the sto­ry of a
Life with Christ on high;
Easter bells, joy­ous bells,
Tell that Je­sus lives, no more to die.

Refrain

Easter bells, East­er bells,
Ring a pro­mise of a
Life be­yond the tomb;
Easter bells, joy­ous bells,
Jesus, ris­en, has dis­pelled all gloom.
