The Limeliters - Joy Across the Land lyrics

You can tell the world about this you can tell the nations about that Tell it to the sea and the sky Tell it to the birds on the fly Tell it to the breeze blowing by That there is joy, joy, joy across the land We saw a farmer working on his farm We saw two lovers walking arm From sea to sea and all across the land We saw joy, joy, joy on every hand You can tell the world about this you can tell the nations about that Tell it to the sea and the sky Tell it to the birds on the fly Tell it to the breeze blowing by That there is joy, joy, joy across the land You know that hard times happen to us all And though our backs are up against the wall Still we'd like for you to understand There is joy, joy, joy on every hand You can tell the world about this you can tell the nations about that Tell it to the waves on the shore Tell it to the rich and the poor Tell it to your neighbor next door That there is joy, joy, joy across the land So when you hear a newborn baby cry Or when you watch the moon go sailing by The time will come when you will understand There is joy, joy, joy on every hand You can tell the world about this you can tell the nations about that Tell it to the sea and the sky Tell it to the birds on the fly Tell it to the breeze blowing by Tell it to the rich and the poor Tell it to your neighbor next door Tell it every day more and more That there is joy, joy, joy across the land
