The Fab Four Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Joy to the world, the Lord has come
Let Earth receive her king
Let every heart prepare Him room
And Heaven and nature sing (Come on!)
And Heaven and nature sing (Come on!)
And Heaven, and Heaven and nature sing

Joy to the world, the saviour reigns

Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy (Come on!)
Repeat the sounding joy (Come on!)
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy

Joy to the world, the Lord has come
Let Earth receive her king
Let every heart prepare Him room
And Heaven and nature sing (Come on!)
And Heaven and nature sing (Come on!)
And Heaven, and Heaven and nature

And Heaven, and Heaven and nature
And Heaven, and Heaven and nature sing

Overall Meaning

The Fab Four's rendition of the carol "Joy to the world" is a beautiful hymn that shares the good news of Christ's arrival on Earth. The first verse declares that the Lord has come and calls for the world to receive their king. The singer then invites every heart to prepare a place for Christ within them, so they can experience the joy and beauty that he brings. The chorus encourages everyone to join in worship and sing praises to God's power and love both on Earth and in Heaven.

The second verse emphasises that Christ is the saviour and that everyone should raise their voice in songs of praise. It invites all creation, including fields, floods, rocks, hills, and plains, to resound in the joyful message of Christ's arrival. The chorus repeats once more, conveying the happiness and spreading the message that Christ is here to reign.

The carol concludes with a final verse, which repeats the message of the first. It reminds all of us to welcome Christ in our hearts, making room for him to be honoured and adored. The repeated chorus emphasises the uncontainable joy that Christ brings to our world and inspires us to sing praises to him.
