Liriko
I heard the bells on Christmas DayTheir old familiar carols play.

And wild and sweet the words repeatOf Peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how as the day had comeThe belfries of all Christendom

Had roll'd along th' unbroken songOf Peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair, I bow'd 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 doth He sleep;

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,With Peace on earth, good will to men."
