Lyrics

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
Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men

My God, How As The Day Had Come
The Belfries Of All Christendom
Had Rolled Along Unbroken Song
Of Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men
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
Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men

Then Rang The Bells More Loud And Deep
God Is Not Dead, Nor Does He Sleep
God Is Not Dead, Nor Does He Sleep
God Is Not Dead, Nor Does He Sleep
God Is Not Dead, Nor Does He Sleep
The Wrong Shall Fail, The Right Prevail
With Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men
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
Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men
Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men
