Caroling, Caroling

Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, caroling through the snow
Christmas bells are ringing
Joyous voices, sweet and clear
Sing the sound of heart to cheer
Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, caroling through the town
Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, caroling up and down
Christmas bells are ringing
Harmony [Incomprehensible] the song we sing
Gladsome tidings now we bring
Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, caroling, near and far
Christmas bells are ringing
Following, following yonder star
Christmas bells are ringing
Sing we now this happy morn
For the King of Heaven is born
Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing
Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, Caroling
