Spean
[Verse 1]
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid
Start of the East the horizon adorning
Guide where the slumbering baby he is laid
[Chorus]
Let them ring, let them ring
Let the bells ring out upon the day
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Chasing the darkness and shadows all away
[Verse 2]
Cold on his cradle the dew drops are shining
Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall
Angels adore him in slumber reclining
Beautiful babe shines the brightest of them all
[Chorus]
Let them ring, let them ring
Let the bells ring out upon the day
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Chasing the darkness and shadows all away
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Say, shall we offer in costly devotion
Odours of Edom and offerings divine?
Gems of the mountain and pearls from the ocean
Myrrh from the forest or gold that's from the mine
[Chorus]
Let them ring, let them ring
Let the bells ring out upon the day
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Chasing the darkness and shadows all away
[Verse 1]
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid
Star of the East the horizon adorning
Guide where the slumbering baby he is laid
[Chorus]
Let them ring, let them ring
Let the bells ring out upon the day
Let them ring, let them ring
Let the bells ring out upon the day
Brightest and best are the suns of the morning
Chasing the darkness and shadows all away
