Sir Geoffrey Cox delivered a heartwarming moment on Chopper's Political Podcast this week, as he read the poem Christmas Bells by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
Sir Geoffrey said: "I heard the bells on Christmas Day, Their old, familiar carols play, and wild and sweet, the words repeat, of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
"And thought how, as the day had come, the belfries of all Christendom, had rolled along, the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
"Till, ringing, singing on its way, the world revolved from night to day, avoice, a chime, a chant sublime, of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
"Then from each black, accursed mouth, the cannon thundered in the South, and with the sound, the carols drowned
Of peace on earth, goodwill to men.
"It was as if an earthquake rent, the hearth-stones of a continent, and made forlorn, the households born o f peace on earth, goodwill 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, goodwill 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, goodwill to men.”
