Lyrics
(German folk song, Lyrics by Frank Edwards, publ. 1924)
Christmas version:
Ring out sweet carillon with Yuletide cheer!
Let love attune your message,
Fair hope be in your presage.
Ring naught but joy to crown the passing year!
Easter version:
Ring out sweet carillon with Easter cheer!
Let love attune your message,
Fair hope be in your presage.
Ring naught but joy to crown the waking year!
