JOY TO THE WORLD
Joy to the world the Lord is come, let earth receive her King Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room, And heav'n and nature sing, and heav'n and nature sing And heav'n, and heav'n and nature sing
Joy to the world the Savior reigns, let men their songs employ While fields and floods, rocks hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrows grow, nor thorns infest the ground He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found Far as, far as the curse is found
He rules the world with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness And wonders of His love, and wonders of His love And wonders, wonders of His love
Music and Words: Isaac Watts (1719)
