Joy to the world! The Lord has 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
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
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 is love
And wonders and wonders of His love
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"
Heaven and nature sing "Praise, praise the King!"

God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Savior
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Rest ye merry, gentlemen
Travel in to Bethlehem
Rest ye merry, gentlemen; travel in to Bethlehem
Tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy, comfort and joy
Tidings of comfort and joy, joy (repeat and fade)
