EJ'S COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS: 13 DAYS!

I love the song "Carol of the Bells," and BarlowGirl has a version of it mixed with "Sing We Now of Christmas" that is absolutely beautiful! It played on the radio earlier tonight, and I've played it often in the car rides for Christmas spirit. Enjoy and be reminded of the message the bells are ringing out!



"Carol of the Bells/Sing We Now of Christmas" by BarlowGirl

"Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
Ding, dong, ding, dong

Ding, dong, and, dong, that is their song,
With joyful ring, all caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air
O, how they pound, raising the sound
Oer hill and dale, telling their tale
Gaily they ring while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!

On, on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone to every home
Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away
Ding, dong, and, dong, that is their song
With joyful ring, all caroling
One seems to hear words of good cheer
From everywhere, filling the air
O, how they pound, raising the sound
Oer hill and dale, telling their tale
Gaily they ring, while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!

Sing we now of Christmas
Noel sing we here (Noel sing we here)
Sing O, great for praises
To the babe so dear
Sing we Noel
The King is born Noel
Sing we now of Christmas
Sing we here Noel

Sing we now of Christmas
Noel sing we here (Noel sing we here)
Sing O, great for praises
To the babe so dear

Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells (Sing Noel)
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer (Sing Noel)
To young and old, meek and the bold

Hark, how the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
To young and old, meek and the bold
O, how they pound, raising the sound
Oer hill and dale, telling their tale
Gaily they ring, while people sing
Songs of good cheer, Christmas is here!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!
Christmas!"

Joyeux Noel!
