Joyful, Joyful we adore thee;
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee; Opening to the sun above;
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness;
Fill us with the light of day.
We sing in jubilation;
Adoration to a joyful king;
You are spinning and you are singing; Zealous love over all your children
All thy works with joy surround thee;
Earth and heaven reflect thy rays;
Stars and angels sing around thee;
Center of unbroken praise;
Field and forest, wind and mountain; Flowery meadows, flashing seas;
Chanting bird and flowing fountain;
Call us to rejoice in thee
Mortals join the mighty chorus;
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning over us;
Brother love binds man to man;
Ever singing, march we onward;
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music lifts us Sonward;
In the triumph song of life.
I've got the joy,
I've got the joy,
I've got the joy (repeat)
