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 (Peace on earth) In my heart I hear them (Peace on earth) Like a choir they're singing 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 rang 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 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 are ringing (Peace on earth) Like a choir they're singing (Peace on earth) In my heart I hear them Peace on earth, good will to men
Do you hear the bells they're ringing? The life the angels 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
