Chimes of Trinity.

Chimes of Trinity.
265.3

In a city grand and gay, where the mighty throng hold sway.
Stands a church whose spire points toward the sky.
And down in the belfry towar oft the chimes have toll’d the hour
And many saddened hearts were charmed while F passing by,
Many miilionaires and ladies grand and noble men of state.
With outcasts from every land and monarcha grand and great.
All have whiled the hours away ‘way Broadway. down on
As they listened to the chimes of Trinity.

Chorus-
Tolling for the outcast, tolling for the gay.
Tolling for the millionaire and friends long passed away:
But my heart is light and gay as I strolled down old Broadway
And listened to the chimes of Trinity.

Many stories have been told of the Christmas bells of old.
When the merry chimes rang out for sad and gay.
As the new year bells would ring sweetened mel adies would sing.
For we know, like time, we all must pass away:
The friends that used to greet us then they greet is now no more:

The chimes wem like their voters sailing from that far off share.
As we whilet the hours away ‘way down on old Broadway,
As we listened to the chimes of old Trinity

Chorus.
Mothers sang their babes salers At the chines rang lume and deer,
And the same chitises ang when college days
Cupić’s dart would pieres a heart. then the wed- dira edimen would rin.
As though were nauche Lat Happiness to Stor
When misfortune came and wealth and fame had vanished in a day.
The chimes that rang for hapur hearts now tolled
An their funeral lay we whi’rd the hours away ‘was down on old Broadway.
As we latened to the chimes of Trinity.
Chorus,
