Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee,
God Of Glory, Lord Of Love;

Fill Us With The Light Of Day!

Chanting Bird And Flowing Fountain
Call Us To Rejoice In Thee.

Oceandepth Of Happy Rest!
Thou The Father, Christ Our Brother –
All who live in love are Thine :
Teach Us How To Love Each Other,
Lift Us To The Joy Divine.
