VERSE 1 Joy to the world! The Lord is come Let earth receive her King Let every heart prepare Him room And heaven and nature sing And heaven and nature sing
VERSE 2 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
VERSE 3 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
VERSE 4 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
