Little church, little church,
Deep in the valley.
Your joyful bells
Ring out on the breeze.
Ring! Ring!
Gentle bell,
Ring your clear call to reason.
Ring! Ring!
Our existence is fleeting.
Ring!
Our life is but a short season.

Little church, little church,
Deep in the valley.
Let us be forever faithful
To the pretty bell.
Ring! Ring!
Gentle bell,
Ring your clear call to reason.
Ring! Ring!
Our existence is fleeting.
Ring!
Our life is but a short season.

Little church, little church,
Deep in the valley.
Your joyful ringing
Bringing happiness
Ring! Ring!
Gentle bell,
Ring your clear call to reason.
Ring! Ring!
Our existence is fleeting.
Ring!
Our life is but a short season.

When you ring out
On judgement day
Your holy bell will say
To those who weep:
Fly! Fly!
Gentle soul,
The House of the Lord is open.
Fly! Fly!
Our existence is fleeting.
Fly!
Our life is but a short season.
