H. Bonar 211 L. M. MOZART mf 2 Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring in the love of truth and right, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: Ring in the common love of good. The year is going, let him go; 5 Ring out the shapes of foul disease, Ring out the false, ring in the true. Ring ont the narrowing lust of gold; 3 Ring out the grief that saps the mind, Ring out the thousand wars of old, For those that here we see no more; Ring in the thousand years of peace. Ring out the feud of rich and poor, cr 6 Ring in the valiant man and free, Ring in redress to all mankind. The larger heart, the kindlier hand; 4 Ring out false pride in place and blood, Ring out the darkness of the land, The civic slander and the spite; Ring in the Christ that is to be. A.
