lyrics
I heard the bells on Christmas day,
Their old familiar carols played
And wild and sweet, The words repeat
Of peace on Earth, good will to men
And thought how as the day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on Earth, good will to men
Then in despair I bowed my head,
“There is no peace on earth,” I said
“For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace on Earth, good will to men.”
Then pealed the bells, more loud and deep:
“Our God’s not dead, nor does He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on Earth, good will to men."
Peace on Earth, good will to men
Peace on Earth, good will to men
