Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells, all seem to say, throw cares away Christmas is here, bringing good cheer, to young and old, meek and the bold, Ding dong ding dong that is their song with joyful ring all caroling One seems to hear words of good cheer from everywhere filling the air Oh how they pound, raising the sound, o’er hill and dale, telling their tale, Gaily they ring while people sing songs of good cheer, Christmas is here, Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas, Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas, On on they send, on without end, their joyful tone to every home Ding dong ding: dong!

Herald the news, To old and young, Tell it to all, In ev'ry tongue. Ring, Christmas bells, Toll loud and long, Your message sweet, Peel and prolong. Come all ye people, Join in the singing, Repeat the story, Told by the ringing. Ring, Christmas bells, Tell the glad news Of Jesus birth.
