Joy To The World
Brian McKnight/Vanessa Williams Lyrics

Joy is the gift He brings
The feeling of great pleasure and happiness that we experience is a gift from the Lord

Joy is the song we sing
The happiness we feel is so profound, it prompts us to sing of our joy

Joy may cover everything
The extensive sense of delight and happiness fills our hearts and covers every aspect of our lives

Joy, joy to the world
We declare that joy has come to the entire world and we rejoice about it

Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Happiness has come to the entire world because the Lord has come!

Let earth receive her King;
We call on the earth and everything on it to receive and embrace its new ruler

Let every heart prepare Him room,
We implore everyone to prepare a place deep in their hearts for the Lord to dwell

And Heaven and nature sing,
The joy of heaven and nature is so evident, it prompts them to sing of joy about the Lord's arrival

Talking 'bout joy, joy, joy, joy
We are conversing about the beauty of happiness, and its power to overcome every obstacle

Said, joy, joy, joy, joy
We declare repeatedly of the great pleasure that the Lord's arrival brings

Joy to the world
We express our pleasure and excitement that the Lord's coming brings joy to the entire world

I'm talking 'bout joy is the gift He brings
We speak of the Lord's arrival and how it brings the gift of great pleasure and satisfaction

Joy let the church bell ring
We exclaim that joy should resound and reverberate across the entire church, and we should express our happiness vocally

Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah bring some joy
We enthusiastically call for everyone to bring happiness and delight to every situation and environment

He rules the world with truth and grace,
The Lord governs the world through justice and fairness, which are expressed through His grace

And makes the nations prove, oh yeah
The nations are invited to experience and affirm the glory and splendor of His power

The glories of His righteousness,
We admire and celebrate the magnificence of the Lord's virtuous and morally upright qualities

And wonders of His love,
We marvel at, and declare the magnificent nature of the Lord's sacrificial and profound love for us.

Wonders of His love
We speak of the Lord's remarkable love and how it inspires awe

Talking 'bout joy, joy, joy, joy
We reiterate the topic of the conversation: profound happiness and excitement

We proclaim again how delightful the Lord's advent is and how it brings joy to the entire world
