Andre J. Thomas' two songs, Rockin' in the Land and Ringen Dem Bells, are combined in this toe-tapping, finger-snapping rendition. Please take this literally as the treble ringers are required to snap on the off-beats while the bass ringers play riffs with mallets on tabled bells in the beginning section! The fun continues from there and only stop to relax for a passage of handchimes (3 to 5-octaves) in chorale style.

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun does its successive journeys run. This first line of the hymn tune DUKE STREET conveys triumph and victory, and so does this arrangement and adaptation for two octaves of handbells. The music begins simply, but soon builds. A second section features the melody in the bass with a gliding, eighth-note accompaniment overhead in the treble. A Broader final section offers strong chords to emphasize the triumph with a couple of martellatos at the end to add proof to the puddin'!.
