rate me

<BR>

Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,<br>

God of glory, Lord of love;<br>

Hearts unfold like flow'rs before Thee,<br>

Op'ning to the sun above.<br>

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;<br>

Drive the dark of doubt away;<br>

Giver of immortal gladness,<br>

Fill us with the light of day!<br>

All Thy works with joy surround Thee,<br>

Earth and heav'n reflect Thy rays,<br>

Stars and angels sing around Thee,<br>

Center of unbroken praise.<br>

Field and forest, vale and mountain,<br>

Flow'ry meadow, flashing sea,<br>

Chanting birds and flowing fountain<br>

Call us to rejoice in Thee.<br>

Thou art giving and forgiving,<br>

Ever blessing, ever blest,<br>

Wellspring of the joy of living,<br>

Ocean depth of happy rest!<br>

Thou our Father, Christ our Brother,<br>

All who live in love are Thine;<br>

Teach us how to love each other,<br>

Lift us to the joy divine.<br>

Mortals, join the happy chorus,<br>

Which the morning stars began;<br>

Father love is reigning o'er us,<br>

Brother love binds man to man.<br>

Ever singing, march we onward,<br>

Victors in the midst of strife,<br>

Joyful music leads us Sunward<br>

In the triumph song of life.<br>

Joyful music leads us Sunward<br>

In the triumph song of life.<br>

<BR><BR>
