My very best favorite is "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day" Please note the fourth verse:
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men
I thought how, as the day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
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 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
Til 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.
So apropos, so meaningful.
