I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
I heard the bells on Christmas dayTheir old familiar carols playAnd mild and sweet their songs repeatOf peace on earth, good will to manAnd the bells are ringingLike a choir they're singingIn my heart I hear themPeace on earth, good will to men
And in despair I bowed my headThere is no peace on earth I saidFor hate is strong and mocks the songOf peace on earth, good will to menBut the bells are ringingLike a choir singingDoes anybody hear them?Peace on earth, good will to men
Then rang the bells more loud and deepGod is not dead, nor doth He sleep
The wrong shall fail, the right prevailWith peace on earth, good will to mensThen ringing singing on its wayThe world revolved from night to dayA voice, a chime, a chant sublimeOf peace on earth, good will to men
And the bells they're ringingLike a choir they're singingAnd with our hearts we hear themPeace on earth, good will to menDo you hear the bells they're ringing?Delight the angles singingOpen up your heart and hear themPeace on earth, good will to menPeace on earth, Peace on earthPeace on earth, Good will to men
