"The Bells of the Lord"

"there shall be inscribed on the bells of the horses, "Holy to the Lord""  Zechariah 14

As i sat on the train travelling across Scotland i considered how essential a bell is - to summon assistance, to give warning, to proclaim news, to announce the time.

With the land covered in snow, sound is muffled, roads are hidden, lambs lost, home cut off.  So a bell is essential!  But have we forgotten the art?  Would we know what to ring?  Would we comprehend what we hear and respond?
