A church bell rings, a child dies
And no one even cares or cries
A church bell rings, a teacher burns
And no one cares and no one learns
The One was here but now is gone
On pilgrimage to hell
The darker ones had come for Him
He tried to stand but fell
A church bell rings, a leader dead
And no one cares what men he led
A church bell rings, a soul is sold
And no one feels the evil cold.
The One is dragged down darker path
The dark ones take His soul
He bleeds and dies, the dark ones laugh
And throw Him in the hole
A church bell rings, a shepherd murdered
And no one cares what sheep he herded
A church bell rings, a fisher drowned
And no one saw the pearls he found
The One falls in the lake of fire
And burns out in a flame
And no one ever hears him weep
as he cries his father's name
A church bell rings, and a savior is crucified.
