Joyful, joyful, we adore thee
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee
Opening 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!
All they 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
Flowery meadow, flashing sea
Chanting bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in thee
Thou art giving and forgiving
Ever blessing, ever blest
Well-spring 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
Mortals join the mighty chorus
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning ov'er us
Brother love binds man to man
Ever signing, march we onward
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life
