Hymn of Joy
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Hymnal: One in Faith #469 (2015) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Alleluia! Alleluia! Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! Alleluia!
Hearts and voices heav'nward raise:
Sing to God a hymn of gladness,
Sing to God a hymn of praise.
Christ, who on the cross a victim,
For the world's salvation bled,
Jesus Christ, the King of glory,
Now is risen from the dead.
2 Now the iron bars are broken,
Christ from death to life is born,
Glorious life and life immortal,
On that holy Easter morn.
Christ has triumphed, and we conquer
By this mighty enterprise,
We with Christ to life eternal
By his resurrection rise.
3 Christ is risen, we are risen!
Shed upon us heav'nly grace,
Rain and dew and gleams of glory
From your holy radiant face;
That, with hearts in heaven dwelling,
We on earth, your servants true,
Will by angel hands be gathered,
And be ever, Lord, with you.
4 Alleluia! Alleluia!
Glory be to God on high;
Alleluia to the Savior
Who have won the victory;
Alleluia to the Spirit,
Fount of love and sanctity;
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Hymn of Joy
Joy, Thou Goddess
Author: Friedrich Schiller, 1759-1805 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #327 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Joy, thou goddess, fair immortal Lyrics: 2 Joy, thou goddess, fair immortal,
offspring of Elysium,
mad with rapture, to the portal
of thy holy fane we come!
Fashion’s laws, indeed, may sever,
but thy magic joins again;
humankind is one forever
‘neath thy mild and gentle reign.
2 Joy, in nature’s wide dominion,
mightiest cause of all is found;
and ‘tis joy that moves the pinion,
when the wheel of time goes round;
from the bud she lures the flower,
suns from out their orbs of light;
distant spheres obey her power,
far beyond all mortal sight.

1 Freude, schóner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
wir betreten feuertrunken,
himmlische, dein Heiligtum.
Deine Zauber binden wieder,
was die Mode streng geteilt,
alle Menschen werden Brúder,
wo dein sanfter Flúgel weilt.
2 Freude heiefst die starke Feder
in der ewigen Natur.
Freude, Freude treibt die Ráder
in der grossen Weltenuhr.
Blumen lockt sie ausden Keimen,
Sonnen aus dem Firmament,
Spháren rollt sie in den Raumen,
die des Sehers Rohr nicht kennt. Topics: Humanist Teachings Beauty, Truth, and Goodness; God, Goddess, and Spirit; Humankind; Joy; Pagan Languages: English; German Tune Title: HYMN TO JOY

To eternal life shall lead.

And be Yours eternally.

Author: William J. Irons Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6094 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Sing with all the saints in glory,
sing the resurrection song!
[originally Sing with all the sons of glory…]
Death and sorrow, earth’s dark story,
to the former days belong.
All around the clouds are breaking,
soon the storms of time shall cease;
In God’s likeness we, awaking,
know the everlasting peace.
2. O what glory, far exceeding
all that eye has yet perceived!
Holiest hearts, for ages pleading,
never that full joy conceived.
God has promised, Christ prepares it,
there on high our welcome waits.
Every humble spirit shares it;
Christ has passed th’eternal gates.
3. Life eternal! Heaven rejoices;
Jesus lives, who once was dead.
Join we now the deathless voices;
child of God, lift up your head!
Patriarchs from the distant ages,
saints all longing for their heaven,
Prophets, psalmists, seers, and sages,
all await the glory given.
4. Life eternal! O what wonders
crowd on faith; what joy unknown,
When, amidst earth’s closing thunders,
saints shall stand before the throne!
O to enter that bright portal,
see that glowing firmament;
Know, with Thee, O God immortal,
Jesus Christ whom Thou has sent. Languages: English Tune Title: HYMN TO JOY

Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee
Author: Henry J. van Dyke Hymnal: Timeless Truths #209 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flow’rs before Thee,
Op’ning 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!
2 All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
Earth and heav’n reflect Thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around Thee,
Center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flow’ry meadow, flashing sea,
Singing bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
3 Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Wellspring of the joy of living,
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our Brother,
All who live in love are Thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.
4 Mortals, join the happy chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife,
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life. Scripture: Psalm 71:23 Tune Title: HYMN TO JOY
Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee
