Michelle Calder - I Heard The Bells Lyrics

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet their words repeat
Of peace on Earth, good will to all

But 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 allll

Allll

For in the cold our brethren sleep
Their depths of sorrow ever deep
Where tolls their bell in their earthly hell
Of peace on earth, good will to all?

Then cried some neighbours loud and deep
Love is not dead nor does it sleep
We'll warm these cold, some luck transposed
With peace on Earth, good will to all

Peace to all
(But we can't help them all)
(Won't someone hear our call)
Peace to all
(The Christmas bells they all)
(Call to one and all)

I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play
And bittersweet, their words repeat
Of peace on earth good will to alllll
Alllll
(The Christmas bells they call)
(I heard the bells for all)
