All Bells in Paradise

Down in yon for-est there stands - a hall, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
Cov-ered all o-ver with pur-ple and 
pall.  And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

In - that hall - there stands - a bed, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
Cov-ered all o-ver with scar-let so red, 
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

At the bed-side - there lies - a stone, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
Which the sweet Vir-gin Ma--ry knelt - up-on, 
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

Un-der that bed--there runs - a flood, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
The one half runs wa-ter, the o-ther half blood, 
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

At the foot of the bed - there grows - a thorn, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
Which e-ver grows blos-som since Je-sus was born, 
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

O-ver that bed - the moon - shines bright, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
To prove that our Sa-viour was born - this night, 
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.  

Down in yon for-est there stands - a hall, 
All bells in par-a-dise I heard them ring, 
Cov-ered all o-ver with pur-ple and pall.  
And I love my Lord Je-sus a-bove a-ny-thing.
