I heard the bells on Christmas day
|
Their old familiar carols play
|
And mild and sweet their songs repeat
|
Of peace on earth, good will to men
|
|
And the bells are ringing
|
Like a choir they're singing
|
In my heart I hear them
|
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
|
|
But the bells are ringing
|
Like a choir singing
|
Does anybody hear them?
|
Peace on earth, good will to men
|
|
Then the bells rang more load and deep
|
God is not dead, nor does He sleep
|
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
|
With peace on earth, good will to men
|
|
Then 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
|
|
And the bells they're ringing
|
Like a choir they're singing
|
And with our hearts we hear them
|
Peace on earth, good will to men
|
Do you hear the bells they're ringing?
|
The life the angles singing
|
Open up your heart and hear them
|
Peace on earth, good will to men
|
Peace on earth, Peace on earth
|
Peace on earth, Good will to men
|
