Lyrics I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day - Single Version - Bing Crosby

Ringing bells Christmas day
Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And wide and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to man (good will to man)

I thought as now this day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rang so long the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to man (peace on earth, good will to man)

And in despair I bowed my head
There is no peace on earth I said
For hate is strong and marks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to man (good will to man)

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 man
(With peace on earth, good will to man)
