Joy to the World (Watts)

lyricist: Isaac Watts, 1719
Composer: From Handel

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

And Heav­en

and Heav­en

and na­ture sing.

Joy to the earth

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.

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

Far as

far as

the curse is found.

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.
