Echo of sound ring high
This cold wet London eve
It flows through the city
Like doves on the wing
The bells are the signal
Time to proceed
Shelters are safe haven below
Drones from engines thunder high in the sky
Sirens scream to deploy
Run for your life
Search out your God
Pray as never before
Cries of babies and children
Ring out from terrors of nightmares re-lived
Death and destruction lay a-round
Previous nights we endured
Our heavenly father we pray up above
Salvation for children we seek
City in shambles
The bombers retreat
Sirens sing out all clear
Time for my family and me to be gone
Pack up and leave this old town
Bow bells would ring to remember this day
History will tell us its tale
Man can survive every turmoil and strife
Oh, father we pray to you
