By
Issac Watts:
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
Joy
to the world the Savior reigns, let men their songs employ
White
fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat
their sounding joy, repeat their sounding joy
Repeat,
repeat the sounding joy
No
more let sins and sorrows grow, nor thorns infest the ground
He
comes to make His blessings flow
Far
as the curse is found, far as the curse is found
Far
as, far as the curse is found
He
rules the world with truth and grace
And
make the nations prove, the glories of His righteousness
And
wonders of His Love, and wonders of His Love
And
wonders, and wonders of His Love
This
profound Christmas song encapsulates what Christmas is all about.
There
is great joy among those who believe;
The
Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah, The Anointed One,
The
Savior of the world has come.
We
have prepared room for Him in our hearts; He is our Heart.
Can
you hear the sound of Heaven and nature
Singing
the praises of the King; singing in adoration of their King;
They
wait in earnest expectation for the reveling of the Sons of God.
We
have great joy because our Savior reigns.
All
authority in Heaven and on earth has been given to Him.
We
who love Him praise Him continually in song.
Every
part of nature exults over this reality; repeating the sounding joy,
As
do we who have received Him.
We
live in His Kingdom, where
sins and sorrows no longer grow;
Thorns
no longer infest our ground.
Christ
Jesus makes His blessings flow in our lives,
No
matter where we live;
And
wherever we live the curse is found in this world ruled by Satan;
But
the curse cannot touch Christ in us.
In
our world, the Kingdom of God, Christ rules.
For
we are not of this world but of Christ.
Soon,
He will come again and reclaim the earth He created;
He
will do away with the kingdom of this world by His Infinite Power.
Every
nation that has rejected Him will be proven guilty of their sin.
The
Glory of Christ Jesus will cover the earth as the waters cover the
sea
For
the thousand years of the Millennium
And
then He will create be a New Heaven and a New Earth.
The
wonder of His Love will be realized by all who belong to Him
All
who have waited in earnest expectation of His coming.
Those
who Overcome this world by the Blood of the Lamb
And
the word of their testimony,
Will
experience the fullness of His Infinite Love, FOREVER! Hallelujah!
