When They Ring The Golden Bells
By Natalie Merchant
3/4 timing
Intro: A
A
There's a land beyond the river
D A
That they call the sweet forever
E
And we only reach that shore by faith's decree
A
One by one we'll gain the portals
D A
The to dwell with the immortals
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
A
Don't you hear the angels singing
E
'Tis the glory halelujah to believe
A
In that far off sweet forever,
D A
Just beyond the shining river
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
A
We shall know no sin or sorrow
D A
In that heaven of tomorrow
E
When our hearts shall sail beyond the silvery sea
A
We shall only know the blessing
D A
Of our Father's sweet caressing
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing

'Tis the glory halelujah to Jubilee
A
In that far off sweet forever,
D A
Just beyond the shining river
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
A
When our days know their number
D A
When in death we sweetly slumber
E
When the King commands the spirit to be free
A
Nevermore with anguish laden
D A
We shall reach that lovely Eden
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
