JOYFUL, JOYFUL (The St. Francis Choir featuring Lauryn Hill, Ryan Toby, Devin Kamin and Ron Johnson)





[Lauryn Hill]
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......



[Choir]

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

An' in my life

I put none before Thee

Cuz since I was a youngster

I came to know

That you was the only way to go

[switch rapper]

So I had to grow an' come to an understandin'

That I'm down with the King so now I'm demandin'

That you tell me who you down with, see

Cuz 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)

Which the morning stars begun

The Father of love is reigning over us

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



Joyful, Joyful
