A festival chime

( In town and in village our church bells today ; We send our thanksgiving for all that we find ; Our fathers before us were men of goodwill ; For April and June with their silver and gold ; The hope of man's heart and the work of his hand ; As once to the Mother and Babe in their flight ; The rose in the hedge and the plum on the tree )

Arr.: Holst, Gustav (1874-1934) [ England ; Great Britain ]
