Analysis of A Pealing Bell



Our blessed Lord and sojourners draw near,
Expecting a miracle, being of good cheer.

Up a staircase, under a crystal chandelier,
Suddenly beaming angels appear.

A euphoric chorus makes it’s premier.
We delight in melodies we so endear.

Christ comprises the good we revere.
He guides us forward, helps us persevere.

Disciples blaze a trail through the years,
Servants obey the voice they hear.

Through a smoky haze through a glass we peer,
Walking with Christ through veil of tears.

Christ’s perfect love casts out fear,
A distant bell peals so loud and clear.
