Full Lyrics
Joy to the world! the Lord is come;
let earth receive her King.
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,
and heav'n and nature sing,
and heav'n and nature sing,
and heav'n and heav'n 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, repeat the sounding joy.
And the government, the government shall be upon His shoulder,
and the government shall be upon His shoulder;
and His name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor,
the mighty God,
the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace,
the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
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, wonders of His love.
For unto us a child is born;
Joy to the world!
