Merry Christmas from my heart to yours!














 "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day"
 [Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), 1867] http://www.oldielyrics.com/christmas/i_heard_the_bells_on_christmas_day.html



 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 men.
I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom



Had rolled along the unbroken song



















Of 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."
 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."
Till, 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 men!
