I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

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

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"

The first noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, noel, noel, noel!
Born is the King of Israel!

I heard the bells
I heard the bells
I heard the bells
I heard the bells
I heard the bells (Christmas Day)
I heard the bells (Christmas Day)
I heard the bells (Christmas Day)
I heard the bells (Christmas Day)

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 men"

Till ringing singing on it's way
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Of peace on earth, good will to men
