Tracy Nelson – Three Bells lyrics

There's a village, down deep in the valley
Among the pine trees, half forlorn
And there on a sunny morning
Little Jimmy Brown was born
Boom, boom, boom, boom

All the chapel bells were ringing
In the little valley town
And the song that they were singing
Was for baby, Jimmy Brown

And the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
Lead us not into temptation
Bless this hour of meditation
Guide him with eternal love

There's a village, down deep in the valley
Beneath the mountains high above
And there twenty years thereafter
Jimmy was to meet his love
Boom, boom

All the chapel bells were ringing
Twas a great day in his life
And the song that they were singing
Was for Jimmy and his wife

And the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
Lead us not into temptation
Bless oh lord this celebration
May their lives be filled with love

From the village, down deep in the valley
One rainy morning dark and gray
A soul winged it's way to heaven
Jimmy Brown had passed away
Boom, boom

Just a lonely bell was ringing
In the little valley town
Twas farewell that they were singing
To our good friend Jimmy Brown

And the little congregation
Prayed for guidance from above
Lead us not into temptation
May his soul find his salvation
In thy great eternal love
