I Heard The Bells
by Matt Shelton

Album: Slospeak Christmas, Vol. 1

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

And I thought how
As the day had come
The belfries of our Christendom
Had rolled along
The unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men

And in despair
I bow 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

I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play
And while it's sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth
Of peace on earth
Of peace on earth, and good will to men
