I gaze on the sun that climbs through the air, While donw in the valley below me They're walking to church, Ah would I was there At Mass with me dear ones that know me. For soon as the sun has mounted the hill And light on the up0lands is falling Oh then I know well a far valley bell Rings out from the old tower calling. I stroll on the hills where winds hurry by And chant lonely pslams from my psalter: No echo returns from mountain or sky, My notes only waver and falter. If only my voice might mingle today Where softly my loved ones are singing; Would Autumn were here and I far away At home where the sweet bells are ringing Source: Singing Together, BBC Broadcasts to Schools, Spring Term, 1959 Notes: Melody: Ole Bull Words: Christopher Hassall | ||
