Early this morning as the day began

I was sweeping on the porch.

I could hear the neighbor lady singing songs to Jesus

and the dog started barking the chorus.

I said to myself we've got a little band

and we're making a joyful noise

just like bells of joy ringing for the Lord.



Now the riverss , and the mountains, and the stars and the planets

go spinning through the sky

when God looks down on his creation

and he breaths the breath of life.

It stirs the soul of every heart

and every creature sings it's part

like bells of joy ringing for the Lord.



All God's children, God the Father

is listening from the throne.

The sigh of peace would be like a symphony

if we would all start singing that song.

We could all look to heaven and raise our voice.

That 'ol devil would look up and say what's that noise

and we'd sing bells of joy ringing ringing

Bells of joy ringing ringing

Bells of joy ringing for the Lord.
