The bells in life are ringing
For those who left this place
In honor of their passage
Their spirits we embrace
Each one an inspiration
Of love in life we share
Now gathered in the beauty
Of constant daily prayer
Today we lost our special friends
Our hearts are filled with woe
With sadness from their passage
Their voices still echo
Each bell that rings a promise
Of love that never fades
With memories we treasure
Their spirit now cascades
Our children of the future
The teachers in their midst
They live on in their days of life
With love that shall exist
You are not forgotten
Your life was not in vain
We carry you forever
As "bells toll" love remains.
