Thread: The Merriest Christmas!

    Default The Merriest Christmas!

    Christmas Bells
    By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

    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!

    And 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!

    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!

    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!' ~ HWL

    And a very warm and Merry Christmas to you & Neil too.
