Christmas Bells Poem by Frederick Nellist

Ring out for all both rich and poor
For absent friends we see no more
Ring out for peace, goodwill prevail
So hope in our hearts will never fail.

Ring out for love in unbroken song
Preaching what is right, also wrong
Ring out for those lost but now found
And thoughts of Christmas so profound.

Ring out bells for all you are worth
Bringing us forever peace on earth
Ring soft and loud, night and day
Helping lost souls to find their way.

Ring out good cheer, banish sorrow
Instilling faith and hope for tomorrow
Ring out a reverberating loving chime
Harmonizing with carols so sublime.

Ring out a welcome to Christmas day
Let our hearts know it's here to stay
Ring out comfort to the sad and forlorn
Celebrate the day Christ was born.
