"Church Bells May Ring" is a song written by The Willows, with songwriting credits also given to Morty Craft; Craft, a veteran arranger and talent scout, owned Melba Records, the label the Willows recorded for, and as often happened in the 1950s, label executives would give themselves a songwriting credit.

There is little evidence Craft wrote the song, and according to the band members, he only paid them $200, despite the fact that the song sold well.
