The Irish Rovers - Bells Over Belfast lyrics

Well the antrum hills that are dark and still and the snow is tumblin' down This Christmas time there's hope again for all in Belfast Town With love and understanding we'll find a better way The gift of peace is ours now upon this Christmas day Bells over Belfast How merrily they play Peace and joy be with you On this Christmas day Well the star of light, it filled the night, many years ago When the Magi found the blessed Child who set our hearts aglow And since that day of wonder will live forever more We hail the newborn King of kings who opened the heavens' door Bells over Belfast How merrily they play Peace and joy be with you On this Christmas day It's a rocky road that leads to peace and a road that's hard to find And them that never look for it, they're deaf and dumb and blind People have their customs, religion and their laws But we can stand together now, united in one cause Bells over Belfast How merrily they play Peace and joy be with you On this Christmas day We'll dance and sing the new year in a share a cup of cheer And drink to health and happiness throughout the coming year We'll put our differences aside, our troubles all behind And take a cup of kindness yet for days of auld lang syne Bells over Belfast How merrily they play Peace and joy be with you On this Christmas day Bells over Belfast How merrily they play Peace and joy be with you On this Christmas day Spoken Peace, please
