    This song is one of my favorite examples of how powerful music and lyrics can be. Each verse tells a story and the chorus reflects Jenny's emotions in a way. Even cooler is how each chorus has (near) identical lyrics but each one carries such a different meaning because of the previous verse and Carrie's inflection. First chorus shows us that Jenny is nervous about being married, the second one shows us that Jenny is ashamed and scared of being beaten, telling herself she'll be okay. By the final chorus, it's a scar. Every time Jenny hears the church bells she's reminded of her pain and telling herself that she'll be okay not only after suffering such debilitating abuse, but also that she'll be okay without him. Really powerful song.

    This is one of Carrie's best songs --- emotional storyline, clever lyrics, and of course her peerless voice to bring it all home. Music does not get better than this ! Love how the chorus of "Church Bells" actually means something different in each of the three verses -- that is amazing storytelling that does not exist today. This would be a "career" song for any other country artist, but for Carrie its just another great album track - she is that good. Make this single #2 or #3 --- Heartbeat will likely be released first ... bravo

    Lyrics
    Jenny grew up wild, like a blackfoot daisy
    Out in the shack with a blue tick hound
    Broke as hell, but blessed with beauty
    The kind that a rich man can't turn down
    She caught the eye of an oil man dancing
    One summer night in a dime store dress
    She had the looks, he had the mansion
    And you can figure out the rest
    It was all roses, dripping in diamonds
    Sipping on champagne
    She was all uptown, wearing that white gown
    Taking his last name
    She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
    And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing
    Fold your hands and close your eyes
    Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
    And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
    Yeah, they're ringing
    Jenny was hosting Junior League parties
    And having dinner at the country club
    Everyone thought they were Ken and Barbie
    But Ken was always getting way too drunk
    Saturday night, after a few too many
    He came home ready to fight
    And all his money could never save Jenny
    From the devil living in his eyes
    It was all bruises, covered in makeup
    Dark sunglasses
    And that next morning, sitting in the back pew
    Praying with the baptist
    She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
    And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing
    Fold your hands and close your eyes
    Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
    You just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
    Yeah, they're ringing
    Jenny slipped something in his Tennessee whiskey
    No law man was ever gonna find
    And how he died is still a mystery
    But he hit a woman for the very last time
    She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing
    Standing there in a black dress singing, singing
    Fold your hands and close your eyes
    Yeah, it's all gonna be alright
    And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing
    Yeah, they're ringing

    This song means a lot to women who have endured the physical mental and emotional violence from the men they loved. Although I would never condone killing anyone, the church part means so much to me because I leaned heavily on God during my struggles and still do now that I have left.

Not many artists can do that these days that's why Carrie is my favorite female solo artist by far!

    I'm a domestic battery and hostage survivor, and I put my first ex in prison of course, but this song reminds me so much of me. I grew up with a big old dog. My mom rescued animals and I loved working with my aunt and her after highschool so much in my college years so started up my own rescue in 2021 and now a nonprofit about to go into a partnership with another rescue organization and someone is interested in helping us with our paperwork to go 501c3 down the road. I got my board members and relocation if they approve the partnership. I went to church back than also, so it's a song that hits home in many ways for me personally. I wanted to marry my first ex, but that didn't happen because I wasn't going to be killed for a man in my life, plus I had a dog to think about.

    I think Carrie Underwood's people made a mistake when they decided to promote some the other songs on this album with music videos, but not this one. I think this is the real hit material.

      that's why they didn't promote it

      It has a music video (sort of) and if you look at the views it surpasses Heartbeat, Smoke break, and Dirty Laundry so they actually push for this song a lot

      Carrie made a mistake when she said that Jenny is supposed to be a girl but in the bridge she says she's a boy

    This song is really good. My favorite song of the "Storyteller" album is "Clock Don't Stop". It really tells how valuable time is. This one is a really good story but I wish she had more songs on the album. Good job, Carrie!

    A six year nightmare of mental physical abuse. Nice to see a good singer fight.
