Christian Hymns/Joy to the World

Background[edit | edit source]

Hymn Tune(s):

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 Heav’n and Nature sing.

Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns!

Let men their songs employ;

While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains

Repeat the sounding joy,

Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sin and sorrows grow,

Nor thorns infest the ground;

He comes to make His blessings flow

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, wonders of His love.
