A warm southerly breeze
brought the joyful sound
of pealing bells
summoning to worship
those that would not normally come
Some bells were silenced
their halls now empty,
put to other use,
Others newly cast
sending out their call across the land
Another Christmas has arrived
will it make any difference at all?
Some only recently began to observe
others don't think it's that big a deal
did he die then for our sins today?
The bell in the forest
matches the bell near the distant sea
A watchnight service they call it there
but the purpose is the same
Rejoice! Christ was born today.
