The Toll

The bell rings to a sermon

It calls us all

The bell rings to a prayer

Raise your voice with the toll.
Your neighbors ask for help

It calls us all

The bell rings to a prayer

Raise your voice with the toll.
Your neighbors ask for help
They need no gold

It’s not a begging of misery,

They beg for a hand to hold.
The word goes to the people

It makes them strong

It’s not a word of vanity –
Wealth and rat race are wrong.
The bell rings to piety

To see the world in true light

It rings to self-devotion –
Regard your honor in the fight.
Every man has the virtue

That can cure and guide

Every man has the prayer
That helps rise up, not hide.
