Let earth receive her king.
Joy to the world, the Lord is come,
Let earth receive her king.
Let every heart prepare him room,
Let Heaven and nature sing,
Let Heaven and nature sing.
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.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glory of his righteousness,
And wonders of his love,
And wonders of his love.
He is the King (King of Kings),
That reigns forever,
He's the beginning and the end,
Which was and is,
And soon to come,
Come...
Adlib:
Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing,
Let Heaven and nature sing,
Joy to the world, the Lord is come,
Let earth receive her king.
Let every heart prepare him room,
Let Heaven and nature sing,
Let Heaven and nature sing.
Joy to the world, the Lord is come,
(Heaven and nature sing)
(Now we sing)
Now you sing
Joy to the world!
