I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

Author: Henry W. Longfellow, 1807-1882 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 121 hymnals Topics: Lament Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas Day their old familiar carols play, and wild and sweet the words repeat of peace of earth, goodwill to men. 2 I thought how, as the day had come, the belfries of all Christendom had rolled along the unbroken song of peace on earth, goodwill to men. 3 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, goodwill to men." 4 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, goodwill to men." 5 Till, ringing, singing on its way, the world revolved from night to day, a voice, a chime, a chant sublime, of peace on earth, goodwill to men!
