Analyze: I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

by Rossetti, Christina Georgina (1830-1894), tr. none

Song Lyrics

1. I heard the bells on Christ- mas day Their old fa- mil- iar car- ols play, And wild and sweet the words re- peat Of peace on earth, good will to men.

2. And thought how, as the day had come, The bel- fries of all Christ- en- dom Had rolled a- long th'un- bro- ken song Of peace on earth, good will to men.

3. Till ring- ing, sing- ing on its way The world re- volved from night to day, A voice, a chime, a chant sub- lime Of peace on earth, good will to men.

4. And in des- pair 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."

5. Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right pre- vail With peace on earth, good will to men."
