I Heard The Bells Lyrics - The Christmas Sessions - Mercy Me

Words and music by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and John Marks 

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 

And 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 

I can hear them 

I can hear them 

I can hear them

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 

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, good will to men

I can hear You 

I can hear You 

I could still hear You 

The world can hear You
