Carol of the Bells
	Chor	Hark how the bells Sweet silver bells All seem to say Throw cares away Christmas is here Bringing good cheer To young and old Meek and the bold Ding dong ding dong That is their song With joyful ring All carolling One seems to hear Words of good cheer From everywhere Filling the air Oh how the pound Raising the sound O'er hill and dale Telling their tale
		Gloria, in excelsis Deo Gloria, Gloria

	Informationen zum Lied
	Unter dem Namen Schtschedryk komponierte 1904 der Ukrainer Mykola Leotowytsch ein Volkslied für einen 4-stimmigen Chor, das Grundlage für Carol of the Bells wurde. 1916 wurde das Lied zum ersten Mal vorgetragen. Peter J. Wilhousky gab dem Lied für den englischen Sprachraum einen neuen Text und es entwickelte sich zu einem der bekanntesten Weihnachtsliedern.
