The Three Bells

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

Twas 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
