JOY TO THE WORLD

Choral

Tis the Season

And send them to thy throne;
All glory to th' united Three,
The undivided One.

'Twas he (and we'll adore his name)

'Tis he restores our ruined frame:
Salvation to the Lord!

Hosannah! let the earth and skies
Repeat the joyful sound
Rocks, hills, and vales, reflect the voice
In one eternal round.
