Ring Them Bells Lyrics - Joan Baez

Ring them bells ye heathen from the city that dreams 

Ring them bells from the sanctuaries cross the valleys and streams 

For they're deep and they're wide 

And the world on its side 

And time is running backwards 

And so is the bride. 

Ring them bells Saint Peter where the four winds blow 

Ring them bells with an ironhand 

So the people will know 

Oh it's rush hour now 

On the wheel and the plow 

And the sun is going down upon the sacred cow.

Ring them bells Sweet Martha for the poor man's son 

Ring them bells so the world will know that God is one 

Oh the shepherd is asleep 

Where the willows weep 

And the mountains are filled with lost sheep 

Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf 

Ring them bells for all of us who are left 

Ring them bells for the chosen few 

Who will judge the many when the game is through 

Ring them bells for the time that flies 

For the child that cries 

When innocence dies.

Ring them bells Saint Catherine from the top of the room 

Ring them from the fortress for the lilies that bloom 

Oh the lines are long and the fighting is strong 

And they're breaking down the distance between right and wrong
