THE BELLRINGER Video (MV)

Dear Lord I'm standing at your door
Oh please have mercy on my soul
I was a bellringer before
But now for me the bell has tolled
I used to ring with all my might
By holding tightly to the rope
My cassock really was a sight
Unfurled just like the flag of hope
I rang the bell at dusk and dawn
And never missed a single mass
I rang for every newly born
I rang for those who'd gone alas
Oh Lord I really rang those bells
Yes Lord I really rang those bells
I saw them rugged
Saw them smart
I saw them bad
I saw them good
But, when the time came to depart
I saw them in their cloak of wood
I heard them promise, to repent
And pray their soul, be heaven bound
Perhaps their soul to you was sent
The rest is ten feet underground
Oh Lord I really rang those bells
Yes Lord I really rang those bells
I saw them full of joy and tears
On every single wedding day
And then I'd see them through the years
Until I saw them pass away
I rang the bells for all my friends
For those who held me in contempt
In hope that some would make amends
Especially those the devil kept
Oh Lord I really rang those bells
Yes Lord I really rang those bells
I rang the bells the whole year long
And never missed a single day
From far and wide you hear their sound
Inviting all of them to pray
I wish all of they'd come to you
And really prove that they believe
They'd find the comfort real and true
And know that you could not deceive
Dear Lord I'm standing at your door,
Oh please forgive my every sin
Although I've not been here before
I feel that I'm your next of kin
