I heard the bells on Christmas day The old familiar carols play And wide and sweet the words repeat Of peace on earth, good will to man ♪ I thought, how has, the day had come The belfries of all Christendom Had rung along The broken song Of peace on earth, good will to man ♪ 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 man ♪ 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 man With peace on earth, good will to man With peace on earth, good will to man
