I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

Author: Henry W. Longfellow Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 115 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:13-14 First Line: I heard the bells on Christmas day Lyrics: 1 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. 2 And thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along th’ unbroken song Of peace on earth, good will to men. 3 Till 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. 4 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.” 5 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: “God is not dead, nor does He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right prevail With peace on earth, good will to men.” Used With Tune: WALTHAM Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/I_Heard_the_Bells_on_Christmas_Day); The Cyber Hymnal (http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/i/h/iheardtb.htm)
