I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day
Travis Tritt

I heard the bells on Christmas day 
Their old familiar carols play 
And mild and sweet the words repeat,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how as the day had come, 
The belfries of all Christendom 
Had roll'd along th' unbroken song 
Of peace on earth, good will to men. 

And in despair I bow'd 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. 

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.

With peace on earth, good will to men.

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, 
With peace on earth, good will to men.
