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!
