Lightly, softly the world lies sleeping Heaven bells to earth below Christmas morning children waking To hear the sacred story told Joy to the world, the Lord has come Ring the bells... ring the bells Emmanuel Ring the bells... ring the bells Emmanuel has come. (Has come) So join the host of angel singing Glory to the new born Christ Good good news Fills the sky Ring the bells... ring the bells Emmanuel Ring the bells... ring the bells Emmanuel has come. (Has come) Our long awaited wonderful savior Has come to deliver us out of the darkness And into this marvelous world God has given us light New light. So shine your light Shine it bright Yeah!
