I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day [#IHeardTheBellsOnChristmasDay #IHeardTheBells #ChristmasDay]
Song based on the Bible verse:
Luke 2:13-14
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:
14 “Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
Song written by:
Original in English: Henry W. Longfellow [Henry Wadsworth Longfellow] (February 27, 1807, Portland, Maine, USA – March 24, 1882, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA)
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
I thought how as the day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on earth good will 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 good will 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 good will 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 good will to men
