The Three Bells with The Carter Family

歌詞

There's a village hidden deep in the valley Among the pine trees half forlorn And there on a sunny morning Little Jimmy Brown was born All the chapel bells were ringing In the little valley town And the songs that they were singing Were for baby Jimmy Brown Then 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 hidden deep in the valley Beneath the mountains high above And there, twenty years thereafter Jimmy was to meet his love All the chapel bells were ringing Was a great day in his life 'Cause the songs that they were singing Were for Jimmy and his wife Then 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 hidden deep in the valley One rainy morning, dark and gray A soul winged its way to heaven Jimmy Brown had passed away Just a lonely bell was ringing In the little valley town T'was farewell that it was singing To our good old Jimmy Brown And the little congregation Prayed for guidance from above Lead us not into temptation May his soul find the salvation Of thy great eternal love
