Switchfoot - I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

(One, two, three)

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet their songs repeat
Peace on Earth good will to men

And 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 men

But the bells are ringing (peace on earth)
Like a choir singing (peace on earth)
Does anybody hear them? (Peace on earth)
Peace on earth, good will to men

Then rang the bells more loud and deep
God isn't dead, nor does he sleep (peace on earth)
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
Peace on Earth, good will to men

Ringing singing on its way
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Peace on earth, good will to men

And the bells they're ringing (peace on earth)
Like a choir they're singing (peace on earth)
And with our hearts we'll hear them (peace on earth)
Peace on earth, good will to men

Peace on earth, good will
Peace on earth, good will to men
