The Sally Army sings these lyrics to the tune. They were written by Brigadier Miriam M Richards.

The bells ring out at Christmas time
Their message loud and clear.
Our hearts are stirred as on the air
The joyful sound we hear.
Sweet Bells etc

Thanks be to God since all may learn
The bells' exultant theme.
The babe of Bethlehem was born
This lost world to redeem
Sweet bells...

Glad message of the Christmas bells
Of God Whose name is love.
Oh may this music all our days
Our hope and comfort prove.
Sweet Bells...

Foxen will be performing this version at the Leigh Folk Carol Concert this year (St Clement's Church, Leigh on Sea, December 11, 2016) as the While Shepherds Watched lyrics have been bagged for another tune. Good job there is such diversity in the world of folk carols.
