Down in yon forest there stands a hall Bells of paradise I hear them ring It's gilded all over with purple and pall And I love my Lord Jesus above anything Down in that hall there lay a bed Voices of heaven here in my head All scarlet the cover that over it spread And I love my Lord Jesus above anything Down under that bed there runs a flood Bells of heaven I hear them ring Half run in water Half run in blood And I love my Lord Jesus above anything Down at the bed feet there grows a thorn Voices of heaven I hear them sing It blooms its white blossoms the day he was born And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
