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!
I thought of how, as thq day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of Peace on Earth, Good Will 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, Good Will to Men!”
Vivian Blaine Perry Como • Harry James and his band
• • Carmen Miranda • Phil Silvers i
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!”
Saturday, December 21st
Till ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolves from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Of Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men!
