peace on earth

this is one of my favorite christmas songs,
full of hope and promise

despite the times in which it was written,
the truth of God's sovereignty remains.

"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!"

It reminds me of 1 Kings 18:27 27

At noon Elijah began to taunt them. "Shout louder!" he said. "Surely he is a god! Perhaps he is deep in thought, or busy, or traveling. Maybe he is sleeping and must be awakened."

God is wonderful
