Ring the bells of Heaven! There is joy today,
 For a soul, returning from the wild!
 See, the Father meets him out upon the way,
 Welcoming His weary, wandering child.

Glory! Glory! How the angels sing:
Glory! Glory! How the loud harps ring!
’Tis the ransomed army, like a mighty sea,
Pealing forth the anthem of the free.

 Ring the bells of Heaven! There is joy today,
 For the wanderer now is reconciled;
 Yes, a soul is rescued from his sinful way,
 And is born anew a ransomed child.

 Ring the bells of Heaven! Spread the feast today!
 Angels, swell the glad triumphant strain!
 Tell the joyful tidings, bear it far away!
 For a precious soul is born again.
