Three Bells

There's a village hidden deep in the valley Among the pine trees all forlorn And there on a sunny morning Little Jimmy Brown was born So his parents brought him to the chapel When he was only one day old And the priest blessed the little fellow "Welcome, Jimmy, to the fold". All the chapel bells were ringing In the little valley town And the songs that they were singing Were for baby Jimmy Brown. And the little congregation Prayed for wisdom from above "Lead us not into temptation, Bless this hour of meditation, Guide him with eternal love." There's a village hidden deep in the valley Beneath the mountains high above And there, twenty years thereafter Jimmy Brown would meet his love Many friends were gathered in the chapel And many tears of joy were shed In June on a Sunday morning When Jimmy and his bride were wed.
