LyicsJoy 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 nature sing.
Come let us bow before his feet,
And venture near the Lord;
No fiery cherub guards seat,
Nor double-flaming sword.
The peaceful gates of heavenly bliss
Are opened by his Son;
High let us raise our notes of praise,
And reach th' Almighty throne.
To thee then thousand thanks we bring,
Great advocate on high;
And glory to th' eternal King
Who lays his anger by.
