Let the Bells Ring

Christmas is past now

And the year is in its decline

We all take a last bow

This was our chance to shine

We'll go down to the sea shore

With hearts as wide as our dreams

And we'll wait by the new dawn

Till the sea she glistens and gleams

Let the bells ring

Here my arms are open wide

Send the old year out

On the rolling tide

Let the sun rise

There is nothing now I fear

Let the sun rise up

On a happy new year

On a happy new year

Christmas is past now

And the sun has taken her turn

The long shadows cast now

Is the darkness from which we can learn

We'll go down to the sea shore

With a song of joy on our tongues

And we'll wait by the new dawn

And we'll sing from the depths of our lungs

Let the bells ring

Here my arms are open wide

Send the old year out

On the rolling tide

Let the sun rise

There is nothing now I fear

Let the sun rise up

On a happy new year

On a happy new year

Christmas is past now

So cast off the cruel and the sad

The years go so fast now

Just take with you what makes your heart glad

We'll go down to the sea shore

And we'll stand with the lost and the loved

And we'll wait by the new dawn

Till the sun joins the stars up above

Let the bells ring

Here my arms are open wide

Send the old year out

On the rolling tide

Let the sun rise

There is nothing now I fear

Let the sun rise up

On a happy new year

On a happy new year
