JOY, JOY, CHRISTMAS JOY (1996)

​

Snow, snow, Christmas snow, 

 falling ev'rywhere!

Field and rooftop, fence and road, 

 find blessing in the air;

Angel wings and snowflakes bring 

 their message through the sky.

Joy, joy, Christmas joy!  

 God is drawing nigh!

​

Lights, lights, Christmas lights, 

 shining ev'rywhere!

Candles glow and darkness flees, 

 no more can we despair;

Fir trees sparkle with their news 

 of Jesus' holy birth.

Joy, joy, Christmas joy! 

 Christ is come to Earth!

​

Bells, bells, Christmas bells, 

 ringing ev'rywhere.

Sun and moon and stars join in, 

 their music to declare.

From highest heaven Beauty comes, 

 Creation's holy Lord.

Joy, joy, Christmas joy! 

 Nature is restored!

​

Hearts, hearts, Christmas hearts, 

 open ev'rywhere.

Bethlehem within each soul, 

 a tiny manger there

Opens to its Savior now, 

 and welcomes Him to stay.

Joy, joy, Christmas joy, 

 born in us today!
