Refrain: Beautiful bells, Beautiful bells, Beautiful Bethlehem bells; Beautiful bells, Beautiful bells, Beautiful Bethlehem bells. 2 Far off in the land that is lovely, For the tender, sweet story it tells, In the light of a glorious morning, Rang the beautiful Bethlehem bells; And still in the hearts of creation An anthem exultingly swells At that memory sweet of the ringing Of the beautiful Bethlehem bells. [Refrain] 3 They rang o’er the hills and the valleys, They summoned the glad world that day, From regions of night to the manger, Where the beautiful child Jesus lay; And forever and ever and ever A wonderful melody dwells In the tender, sweet ringing and singing Of the beautiful Bethlehem bells. [Refrain] 4 For they sing of a love that is deathless, A love that still triumphs in loss; They sing of the love that is leading The world to the Calvary cross. Ring sweet o’er the sound of the cities, Ring sweet o’er the hills and the dells, And touch us with tenderest pities, Oh, the beautiful Bethlehem bells.

The Everlasting Father dwells with Men

Author: John Relly Meter: Irregular Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Micah 5:2 First Line: Let all the nations of the earth Lyrics: 1 Let all the nations of the earth Sing of the great Redeemer's birth! That once despised man: O how immense the mystery; The Father of eternity Contracted to a span. 2 The fallen sons of men he took, As members written in his book, And did our state assume, That we with him, from sin set free, Pure, holy, undefil'd might be, And thus to glory come. 3 Lo! then a man was born again, Exempt from Adam's dreadful stain, And fully meet for heav'n: With him the fallen sons of earth Are born of God, this their new birth, Which grace to them has giv'n. 4 With Angel hosts we join to sing The Praises of our new born King, Our God incarnate bless, Whose holy, strange, mysterious birth, Brought heav'nly joys to sons of earth, With peace and righteousness.
