The Church Steeple (High On A Hillside)
Lyricist:O'brien Timothy Page
High on a hillside the old church steeple calls The bells are a ringin', singin' to one and all Of the joys and the sorrows, the laughter and the pain The heartbeat of the whole town is heard within that strain
Well, it called for my brother when he made his way back home With a purple heart in a pine box, he was never more to roam We all came down to meet him and to make our last goodbye I think of him when the bells ring and the tears come to my eye
High on a hillside the old church steeple calls The bells are a ringin', singin' to one and all Of the joys and the sorrows, the laughter and the pain The heartbeat of the whole town is heard within that strain
Well, it called to my sister when she walked the aisle in white All eyes were upon her with my father at her right And he gave her away to my best friend and if you hear the bells today Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com We'll meet there to name a new child and to bless him on his way
It will call and I'll answer 'til my ears no longer hear It'll soothe me in anger, it'll wipe out all my fears It tells us how we belong, it swells us up with pride We'll all hear it together and walk there side by side
High on a hillside the old church steeple calls The bells are a ringin', singin' to one and all Of the joys and the sorrows, the laughter and the pain The heartbeat of the whole town is heard within that strain
High on a hillside the old church steeple calls The bells are a ringin', singin' to one and all Of the joys and the sorrows, the laughter and the pain The heartbeat of the whole town is heard within that strain High on a hillside the old church steeple calls
