I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

Once again, I am sharing pictures taken by Jake many years ago. I am fairly certain these were taken using slide film and later transferred to the computer.

These scenes were all in Morden and the neighbouring town of Winkler.

Instead of trying to comment on each one, I will share the words of the song I Heard the Bells On Christmas Day.



I heard the bells on Christmas day

Their old familiar carols play

And mild and sweet their songs repeat

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 rang the bells more loud and deep

God is not dead, nor does he sleep 

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail

With peace on earth, good will to men





Then 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





Peace on earth, good will to men

Peace on earth, peace on earth

Peace on earth, Good will to men



 May the peace of God dwell in your hearts and homes this Christmas season.
