David Phelps - Joy, Joy lyrics
[David Phelps - Joy, Joy lyrics]
Like a drama unfolding
The curtain was opening
An audience of angels was holding it's breath
A census, a manger, two travel worn strangers
The stage was finally set
Angels folded their wings at the throne
Worshipping
As God whispered, "I love you, my Son"
Jesus took off His crown and laying it down
Said, "Father, Thy will be done"
The time had now come for God's only Son
To be born as a light in a dark, lonely place
So He stepped from Heaven's
Hall to Bethlehem's stall
Where a star lit His newborn face
Then God called to Gabriel
With gladness and tears
"Play the trumpet, the horns, and the strings
Tell the shepherds
And the wise men and all who will hear
Command all the angels to sing
Fill the sky with your voices and sing!"
Joy, joy to the world praise to the King
Oh, let it ring joy, joy to the world
Worship and sing jesus has come to bring
The curtain was opening
An audience of angels was holding it's breath
A census, a manger, two travel worn strangers
The stage was finally set
Angels folded their wings at the throne
Worshipping
As God whispered, "I love you, my Son"
Jesus took off His crown and laying it down
Said, "Father, Thy will be done"
The time had now come for God's only Son
To be born as a light in a dark, lonely place
So He stepped from Heaven's
Hall to Bethlehem's stall
Where a star lit His newborn face
Then God called to Gabriel
With gladness and tears
"Play the trumpet, the horns, and the strings
Tell the shepherds
And the wise men and all who will hear
Command all the angels to sing
Fill the sky with your voices and sing!"
Joy, joy to the world praise to the King
Oh, let it ring joy, joy to the world
Worship and sing jesus has come to bring
