The bells of paradise I heard them ring
It's covered all over with purple and pall
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
In that hall there stands a bed
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
It's covered all over with scarlet so red
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
At the bed side there lies a stone
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
Which the sweet virgin Mary knelt upon
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
Under that bed there runs a flood
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
The one half runs water
And other runs blood
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
At the bed's foot there grows a thorn
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
Whichever blows blossoms
Since He was born
And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
Over that bed the moon shines bright
The bells of paradise I heard them ring
Denoting our Saviour was born this night
And I love my Lord Jesus above everything
Down in yon forest there's stands a hall The bells of paradise I heard them ring It's covered all over with purple and pall And I love my Lord Jesus above anything In that hall there stands a bed The bells of paradise I heard them ring It's covered all over with scarlet so red And I love my Lord Jesus above anything At the bed side there lies a stone The bells of paradise I heard them ring Which the sweet virgin Mary knelt upon And I love my Lord Jesus above anything Under that bed there runs a flood The bells of paradise I heard them ring The one half runs water And other runs blood And I love my Lord Jesus above anything At the bed's foot there grows a thorn The bells of paradise I heard them ring Whichever blows blossoms Since He was born And I love my Lord Jesus above anything Over that bed the moon shines bright The bells of paradise I heard them ring Denoting our Saviour was born this night And I love my Lord Jesus above everything Explain Request ×
