Hark, the New Year bells are pealing, Waves of melody are stealing Unto reaches far and near; Like the waves of ocean beating Once more comes the old-time greeting— Wishes for a glad New Year. Where the midnight bells are pealing Men in prayer are humbly kneeling With the God of Heaven near; While He speaks with tender feeling, To the souls of men revealing Greetings of good will and cheer. Hearken, while the bells are ringing Through the night like Angels winging From the near and far away; Think of country, home and Heaven, Add your prayers unto the leaven, Start the New Year well today! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE MEMORY OF THE HEART by DANIEL WEBSTER SONG OF OWL'S HEAD by NORMAN WILLIAMS BINGHAM THE ROSARY by CHARLOTTE A.
