My brother's in the church yard
My cousin's with him too
I'm waiting here inside the church
When they come in with the news
Already I am dreaming
And I see your face
I hear the church bells ringing
High above this place.
There is no time to tell you
Before I fall asleep
I loved you all so dearly
There is no time to weep
Already I am dreaming
And I see your face
I hear the church bells ringing
High above this place.
Keep singing and rejoicing
And when you hear the news
Ring the church bells louder
Till they rattle all the pews
Already I am dreaming, and I see your face
I hear the church bells ringing
Alleluia, Amazing Grace.
There is no time to tell you, but be not over-grieved
Look for the note inside my shirt as I lay me down to sleep.
