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 all!
Ring out, oh bells, ring peace on earth,
Ring tidings of comfort and joy.
Now ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Of peace on earth, good-will to all!
Ring out, oh bells, ring peace on earth,
Ring tidings of comfort and joy.
