Sweet East­er bells a-chime,
Ring in the glo­ri­ous time,
When o’er His foes the Lord arose
In ma­jes­ty sub­lime;
Let earth the joy­ful tid­ings speed,
And shout, and shout,
The Lord is ris’n in­deed.

Refrain

Oh, East­er bells, ring on, ring on!
Oh, East­er bells, ring on, ring on!
With tune­ful sound the world around,
Ring on sweet bells,
Ring on, ring on, ring on!

Ring in the reign of peace,
When sin and con­flict cease,
And while we sing and praise our king,
May love and faith in­crease;
Let earth the joy­ful tidings speed,
And shout, and shout,
The Lord is ris’n in­deed.

Refrain

Ring out Je­ho­vah’s praise,
A peal of tri­umph raise,
Ring sweet and clear, ring far and near,
To hail this day of days;
Let earth the joy­ful tid­ings speed,
And shout, and shout,
The Lord is ris’n in­deed.
