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 goodwill 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 goodwill to men

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 goodwill to men

God is not dead, nor does He sleep
God is not dead, nor does He sleep
Almighty Father Prince of Peace
His Word is true. His love is deep
His sovereign reign will never cease
God is not dead nor does He sleep

The wrong shall fail
The right prevail
With peace on earth goodwill to men
