This is to the same tune as Ode To Joy
1 Joyful, joy - ful, we a - dore Thee,
2 All Thy works with joy sur-round Thee,
3 Thou art giv - ing and for-giv - ing,
4 Mortals, join the hap-py cho - rus,
1 God of glo - ry, Lord of love;
2 Earth and heav'n re -flect Thy rays,
3 Ever bless-ing, ev -er blessed,
4 Which the morn - ing stars began;
1 Hearts un-fold like flow'rs be -fore Thee,
2 Stars and an - gels sing a - round Thee,
3 Wellspring of the joy of liv - ing,
4 Father love is reign - ing o'er us,
1 Opening to the sun above.
2 Center of un - brok-en praise.
3 Ocean depth of hap -py rest!
4 Brother love binds man to man.
1 Melt the clouds of sin a---and sadness;
2 Field and forest, vale a---and mountain,
3 Thou our Father, Christ o---our Brother,
4 Ever singing, march we--e onward,
1 Drive the-e dark of doubt a-way;
2 Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
3 All who live in love are Thine;
4 Victors in the midst of strife,
1 Giver of im-mor -tal glad-ness,
2 Singing bird and flowing fountain
3 Teach us how to love each other,
4 Joyful music leads us Sunward
1 Fill us with the light of day!
2 Call us to rejoice in Thee.
3 Lift us to the joy divine.
4 In the triumph song of life.
