Joy to the world! The Lord has come Let earth receive her King! Let every heart prepare him room And heaven and nature sing Joy to the earth! The Saviour reigns Let men their songs employ While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains 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 He rules the earth with truth and grace And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousnes And wonders of his love
