   C         Dm         F
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
      C       Dm     Am
Their old, familiar carols play,
     C        Dm
and wild and sweet
     F
The words repeat
    F
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!

Till ringing, singing on it's way
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
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!"

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"Oh God's not dead and not asleep
The Wrong shall fail, The Right prevail
With peace on earth, good-will to men!"

 C        Dm          Am
Peace on earth, good-will to men
 C        Dm          Am
Peace on earth, good-will to men
 C        Dm          Am
Peace on earth, good-will to men
 F                            C
Peace on earth, good-will to men
