Mvmt IV, “Every Bell on Earth will Ring”
Joy to the world! The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King!
Let every heart prepare him room
And heaven and nature sing!
He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love!
Every bell on earth shall ring
On Christmas Day in the morning!
Every soul on earth will sing
On Christmas Day in the morning!
Joy to the world! the Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ!
While fields and floods
And hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy!
O come, let us adore Him!
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!
