At Christmas time in the steeple highThe bells would proudly ring
To tell the world of the joy and cheer
That Christmas day would bring
But one little bell in the steeple high
Could only pain alone and cry
No matter how he’d try and try
Poor little thing he couldn’t ring at all
All the other bells in the steeple high
Saw all his lonely tears
And watched him try his best to ring
Each Christmas through the years
But the little blue bell in the steeple toll
Just pride from Christmas came to call
For like I said in spite of all
Poor little thing he couldn’t ring at all
One Christmas Eve in the steeple high
An angle did appear
She smiled and said to the little blue bell
I’ve come to dry yours tears
And on that night so the story’s told
She changed the little blue bell to the purest gold
With the richest tone to hold and hold
Proud little thing just hear him r’ing
