I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day lyrics

Song information

Artist: Travis Tritt
Album: A Travis Tritt Christmas--Loving Time Of The Year

Lyrics

I heard the bells on christmas day
Travis tritt

I heard the bells on christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men

I thought how as the day had come
The belfries of all christendom
Had roll'd along th' unbroken song
Of 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

≪ instrumental >

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

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men
