1 Joy, joy, joy!
Hark, how the bells keep time
O’er the list’ning earth,
Pealing the Christmas chime.

Refrain:
Joy, joy, joy,
Sing the happy song again!
Joy, joy, joy!
Christ is born in Bethlehem!
Joy, joy, joy,
Echo back the sweet refrain,
Joy! joy!
Joy, joy, joy!

2 Joy, joy, joy!
Stars in the bending sky
Join in the song of praise,
Echo its melody. [Refrain]

3 Joy, joy, joy!
Sorrowful hearts of men,
Earth and heav’n rejoice,
Hear and be glad again. [Refrain]
United Praise: for use in Sunday Schools, Young People's Societies and other Church Services #151 (1908)
