Hymnal: The Silver Chime #96 (1862) First Line: Joy! joy to the nations, Messiah is come Lyrics: 1 Joy! joy to the nations, Messiah is come, His kingdom of peace has descended; How bright is its promise, how glorious its hope, The dominion of darkness is ended, No more condemnation to those who repose In Him with the heart's full confiding, Almighty to save them, all bounteous and good, His love with them over abiding. 2 Rejoice, O ye people, sing loud in His praise, The world His rich grace now possessing, Victorious o'er evil, and darkness, and death, His arm brings salvation and blessing, Light dawns from the heavens, the day-star shines clear, In brightness, in beauty and glory, Go spread the glad tidings the wide earth around, And millions shall echo the story. Tune Title: [Joy! joy to the nations, Messiah is come]
