Christmas Day Joyous

Christmas day joy­ous

feast of all peo­ples

Heaven and earth re­sound with glad praise.

Angels des­cend­ing sing forth His glo­ry

Bringing us faith

hope

love

all our days—

Bringing us faith

hope

love

all our days.

Bethlehem’s star with ra­di­ance beam­ing

Fills hu­man hearts with heav­en­ly mirth

God’s lov­ing mes­sage brings new as­sur­ance

So let the world pro­claim Je­sus’ birth—

So let the world pro­claim Je­sus’ birth.

In ad­or­ation wi­dows and or­phans

Whose hearts are bur­dened

turn un­to Heav’n

In faith and hope and love they can pray now

Since Je­sus Sav­ior is to them giv’n—

Since Je­sus Sav­ior is to them giv’n.

Joy we be­hold on earth and in Heav­en

Wonderful Yule­tide

bless­ings from Him

Joy ev­er­last­ing glad­den all hearts now

Bring to the world peace

good­will to men—

Bring to the world peace

good­will to men.
