Lyrics
Verse 1
I heard the bells on Christmas day their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat of peace on earth, good will to men.
Verse 2
And thought how, as the day had come, the belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song of peace on earth, good will to men.
Verse 3
Till ringing, singing on its way the world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime of peace on earth, good will to men.
Verse 4
And 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."
Verse 5
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep, "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail with peace on earth, good will to men."...
