Joy to the World

arr. David Babbitt

Original Text

Original Text

Joy to the world! The Lord has 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.

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.


This piece was performed by the SFBC in Psallite! A Candlelight Christmas on December 3, 2005.
