Ring Them Bells lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Ring Them Bells lyrics Ring them bells ye heathen from the city that dreams Ring them bells from the sanctuaries cross the valleys and streams For they re deep and they re wide And the world on its side And time is running backwards And so is the bride. Ring them bells Saint Peter where the four winds blow Ring them bells with an ironhand So the people will know Oh it s rush hour now On the wheel and the plow And the sun is going down upon the sacred cow. Ring them bells Sweet Martha for the poor man s son Ring them bells so the world will know that God is one Oh the shepherd is asleep Where the willows weep And the mountains are filled with lost sheep Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf Ring them bells for all of us who are left Ring them bells for the chosen few Who will judge the many when the game is through Ring them bells for the time that flies For the child that cries When innocence dies. Ring them bells Saint Catherine from the top of the room Ring them from the fortress for the lilies that bloom Oh the lines are long and the fighting is strong And they re breaking down the distance between right and wrong. song lyrics
