I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

Carly Simon

    Continues after the ad

    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

    I thought how as the day had come
    The belfries of all Christendom
    Had rolled along unbroken song
    Of peace on earth goodwill to men

    I can hear your voice
    I can hear your voice
    Like the bells on Christmas Day

    Continues after the ad

    And in despair I bowed my head
    "there is no peace on earth" I said
    For hate is strong that 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)

    Till ringin' singin' on it's way
    The world revolve from night to day
    A voice a chime a chant sublime
    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
