Lyrics below

The Antrim hills are dark and still
And the snow is tumbling 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.

A star of light it filled the night
Many years ago
When the magi found the blessed child
Who set our hearts a-glow
And since that day of wonder we'll live forever more
We hail the new-born King of Kings
Who opened heaven's 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, religions 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
And share a cup of cheer
We'll 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.
