¶Lyrics / Text

1. Down in yon forest there stands a hall: The bells of Paradise I heard them ring: It's covered all over with purple and pall: And I love my Lord Jesus above anything. 2. In that hall there stands a bed: The bells of Paradise I heard them ring: It's covered all over with scarlet so red: And I love my Lord Jesus above anything. 3. At the bed-side there lies a stone: The bells of Paradise I heard them ring: Which the sweet Virgin Mary knelt upon: And I love my Lord Jesus above anything. 4. Under that bed there runs a flood: The bells of Paradise I heard them ring: The one half runs water, the other runs blood: And I love my Lord Jesus above anything. 5. At the bed's foot there grows a thorn: The bells of Paradise I heard them ring: Which ever blows blossom since he was born: And I love my Lord Jesus above anything.
