Joyful Joyful Lyrics

Joyful Joyful
(from Sister Act 2 Back In The Habit soundtrack)


Verse
Joyful, joyful, Lord, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love.
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
hail Thee as 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,
fill us with the light,
oh, fill us with the light of day.

Chorus
Joyful, joyful Lord, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love.
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
hail Thee as the sun above.

Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness,
drive the dark of doubt away, drive it away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
fill us, fill us with the light of day,
light of day.

Rap
Check the rhyme,
joyful, joyful, Lord we adore Thee,
and in my life I put none before Thee;
'cause since I was a youngster I came to know,
that You was the only way to go.

So I had to grow and come to an understanding
that I'm down with the King, so now I'm demanding,
that you tell me who you down with, see,
'cause all I know is that I'm down with G-o-d.

You down with G-o-d, (yeah, you know me) .
You down with G-o-d, (yeah, you know me).
You down with G-o-d, (yeah, you know me).
Who's down with G-o-d, (everybody).

Bridge
Come and join the chorus,
the mighty, mighty chorus,
which the morning stars begun;
the Father of love is reigning over us.

(By the way...)
What have you done for Him lately,
ooh, ooh, ooh yeah?

What have you done for Him lately,
He watches over everything,
so we sing...


Chorus 2
Joyful, joyful Lord, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love.
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee,
hail Thee as the sun above.

Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness,
drive the dark of doubt away, drive it away;
Giver of immortal gladness...
