"Liberty Bell (It's Time to Ring Again)" is a song from 1917 written during World War I. Joe Goodwin wrote the lyrics, and Halsey K. Mohr wrote the music. The song was published by Shapiro, Bernstein & Co. in New York. The lyrics to "Liberty Bell (It's Time to Ring Again)" resembles a call to action. The chorus repeats, :''Liberty Bell, It's time to ring again...'' :''Your voice is needed now;'' :''Liberty Bell...'' :''Though you're old and there's a crack in you,'' :''Don't forget Old Glory's backin' you'' Through the song Goodwin and Mohr were able to point out that the purpose of WWI was to "defeat tyrants who wanted to stifle American freedom, that precious legacy bequeathed by the Revolutionary War." The cover of the sheet music shows a woman, presumably Betsy Ross, mending a flag. A woman is helping her, while a man stands behind her. The Liberty Bell is above their heads. The song was written for voice and piano.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Liberty Bell; it's time to ring again )〕 ==Recordings and commercial success== It was recorded by the Peerless Quartet〔Paas, John Roger (2014).
