|
I heard the bells on |
|
Christmas |
|
DayTheir old familiar carols play |
|
And wild and sweet the words repeat |
|
Of peace on earth goodwill to men |
|
I thought how as the day had come |
|
The belfries of all |
|
Christendom |
|
Had rolled along unbroken song |
|
Of peace on earth goodwill to men |
|
And in despair |
|
I bowed my head |
|
There is no peace on earth |
|
I saidFor hate is strong that mocks the song |
|
Of peace on earth goodwill to men |
|
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep |
|
God is not dead nor doubt |
|
He sleepsThe wrong shall fail the right prevail |
|
With peace on earth goodwill to men |
|
Till ringin' singin' on its way |
|
The world revolve from night to day |
|
A voice a chime a chance so blind |
|
Of peace on earth goodwill to men |
|
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep |
|
God is not dead nor doubt |
|
He sleepsThe wrong shall fail the right prevail |
|
With peace on earth goodwill to men |
