I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old, familiar carols play And wild and sweet Their words repeat Of peace on earth, good-will to men And thought how, as the day had come The steeples of all Christendom Had rolled along The unbroken song Of peace on earth, good-will to men I heard them ringing I heard them ringing All across the earth I heard them ringing The bells remember They ring forever Unto us a child is born our savior Our savior But 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

I Heard the Bells On Christmas Day (Live)
