C G7
I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
C Dm G7
Their old familiar carols play
C E Am
And wild and sweet the words repeat
C G7 C
Of peace on earth, good will to men
C G7
I thought how, as the day had come,
C Dm G7
The belfries of all Christendom
C E Am
Had rolled along the unbroken song
C G7 C
Of peace on earth, good will to men
C G7
And in despair I bowed my head
C Dm G7
"There is no peace on earth," I said
C E Am
"For hate is strong and mocks the song
C G7 C
Of peace on earth, good will to men"
C G7
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep
C Dm G7
"God is not dead, nor doth he sleep
C E Am
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
C G7 C
With peace on earth, good will to men"
