Lyrics Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Ring the Bells

As God is God, as light is light

Whose law is wrong? Whose might is right?

Here we are on the edge

The edge of change

I believe in peace, my only wish

I believe that we can co-exist

Let's go further now

Than we've ever gone before

And ring the bells, ring the bells of change

Ring the bells every boy and every girl

Ring the bells, ring the bells of peace

All over the world

We've all been called to wake from sleep

To feel our power to create the dream

To step out from the dark

Past our fathers' fear

Ring the bells, ring the bells of change

Ring the bells every boy and every girl

Ring the bells, ring the bells of peace

All over the world

Here we stand in unity

Making one choice to be free

Every truth blends into one

As we believe it shall be done

Here we stand as soldiers now

Turning our swords into plows

There is not a nobler clime

Achieving peace in our own time

I know peace begins with me

With all I feel and with all I see

And I know it's no easy task

Removing our own fearful mask

But I have seen us rise and fall

Stand on the moon, tear down the wall

And I know we can do it all

And do it well, so ring the bells

Ring the bells, ring the bells of change

Ring the bells every boy and every girl

Ring the bells, ring the bells of peace

All over the world, all over the world

Ring the bells, ring the bells of change

Ring the bells every boy and every girl

Ring the bells, ring the bells of peace

All over the world, all over the world

Ring the bells, ring the bells of peace

Ring the bells, ring the bells

Ring the bells, ring the bells

Joy to the world

Hallelujah
