I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day Lyrics

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.
I 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.
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. "
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth he sleep
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
In peace on earth, good will to men.
