Lyrics
HEAR THE BELLS
He will come for the great He will come for the least
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
He will come for the ones without mark of the beast
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
He will come to bring joy to the hungry and poor
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For the outcast and oppressed He will even the score
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
For the falsely accused locked away in a cell
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For the guilty who turn from their habits of hell
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
For the beautiful feet laboring in the fields
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
Faithful till death as they bring in the yield
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
For the refugee clinging to life by a thread
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For the chronically ill who?s condemned to a bed
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
And for the orphans whose lives have been broken and torn
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For an end to the slaughter of countless unborn
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
He will come He will come as He promised He would
He will rule with a great rod of iron
And evil will perish before infinite good
And He will fulfill the poor in hearts desire
And for the spouse whose been scorned for another?s embrace
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For the poor lonely soul who just can?t find their place
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
For the parents who pray for their handicapped child
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
For the parents who pray for their children gone wild
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
He will come take His stand with His temple in view
Can you hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
He will vanquish all those who would vanquish the Jews
The angels are singing in heaven tonight
He will come He will come as He promised He would
He will rule with a great rod of iron
And evil will perish before infinite good
He will come
He will come He will come as He promised He would
He will rule with a great rod of iron
And evil will perish before infinite good
And He will fulfill the poor in hearts desire
Hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
Hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
Hear the bells ringing in heaven tonight
O the angels are wrestless in heaven tonight
