joy…

…to the world

a song

for the nations

hope is almost here - and with it - comes a plethora of songs - we generally sing - together to celebrate - the birth of a baby king - this one, ‘joy to the world’ - was written by - isaac watts, and he based it on - psalm 98 and the joy - the birth of jesus - brings to the world - how it marks the beginning - of the redemption of humanity - and the promise of eternal life

joy 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 heaven, and nature sing.

it’s a very joyous song - one which praises - abba to the highest - lifting your voice - and i personally enjoy - singing it year round - because it leads to…

a

happy day…..

happy christmas eve!
