The Vesper Bell

Around the valley – Glenrothes valley, A sound comes o’er the air Resounding sweet and clear A bell is pealing – its music stealing

A call to everyone to come and pray And as you hear its roundelay At the close of the day – come to church and pray And there-at-hush of eventide You will find peace and rest. Come hear the story – the Gospel story

Of Christ the Lord of life – who came to this world’s strife

He lived among men, revealing God them

He died on Calvary for you and me,

And He says – where there is two or three

Come to worship me, there I’ll surely be,

Your heart’s love is the entrance fee, Come unto Me and rest. Come now ye weary – whose life is dreary

Just let your burden fall before the Lord of all

The Man of Sorrows keeps life’s tomorrows Safe in the hollow of His hand So as you hear the roundelay At the close of day – come to Church and pray In the quiet hush of the eventide You will find peace and rest.
