Blow the Trumpet and Beat the Drum

Chorus:
[D] Blow the trumpet and beat the drum
Set all the bells in the steeple [A] ringing
[D] Blow the trumpet and beat the drum
Tell the world that the [A] Lord has [D] come

[D] Through four thousand [G] years of [D] night
[D] There were priests and prophets [A] singing
[D] Through four thousand [G] years of [D] night
[D] "He will come with the morning [A] light"

O how charming, O how dear
All our hearts with His sweetness winning
O how charming, O how dear
Christ the Lord in His cradle here

Chorus

Lord and King we kneel before
While the bells in the sky are ringing
Lord and King we kneel before
Be our ruler for ever more
