| In the road was a bell in the bell was a sound
|
| Of days that have come and gone
|
| And the road ran to a little town on the hillside
|
| Where the word of the Lord lives on
|
| Ring the bell (ring the bell) ring the bell
|
| (Ring the bell) ring the bell both far and wide
|
| You can hear it on the mountain
|
| And down across the valley
|
| Ring the bell and go to His side
|
| Well I followed it down from the forest to the town
|
| In the darkness in dead of night
|
| There were children dancing there with flowers in their hair
|
| And the streets were lit with candle light
|
| In the road was a bell in the bell was a sound
|
| Of days that have come and gone
|
| And the road ran to a little town on the hillside
|
| Where the word of the Lord lives on
|
| Now the farmer and the teacher and the barber and the preacher
|
| All held hands and moved as one
|
| The holy words of some not spoken of a circle unbroken
|
| And the spirit moved in everyone
|
| In the road was a bell in the bell was a sound
|
| Of days that have come and gone
|
| And the road ran to a little town on the hillside
|
| Where the word of the Lord lives on
|
| In the middle of the street I fell down hard on my knees
|
| To the payment that shown like gold
|
| With a shiver in the stars He reached into my heart
|
| And with the kindest words I was told
|
| In the road was a bell in the bell was a sound
|
| Of days that have come and gone
|
| And the road ran to a little town on the hillside
|
| Where the word of the Lord lives on
|
| In the road was a bell in the bell was a sound
|
| Of days that have come and gone
|
| And the road ran to a little town on the hillside
|
| Where the word of the Lord lives on |
