Joy to...you

Joy to...you
The Lord is come
Please receive your King
Let your heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature will sing.

Joy to you!
Jesus,
The Savior, reigns
Let you, your songs employ
While fields and floods
Rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat your song of joy

Don't let your sin and sorrows grow
as thorns infest the ground
He comes to make
His blessings flow
Wherever these are found

He rules over you with both truth and grace
And gives you the ability to prove
The glories of His righteousness
and wonders of His love

Inspired by the beloved carol by Isaac Watts and my Dove Dark Chocolate wrappers.

Well, I'd say it's a variation on a theme. Isaac Watts wrote Joy to the World, and I just did a little editing. Thanks!
