Joyful Joyful Lyrics

[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) 

[4 girls] 
Come and join the chorus 
The mighty, mighty chorus 
Which the morning stars begun 
The Father of love is reigning over us 

[Lauryn Hill] 
Right away 

[Choir] 
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 
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 ([Lauryn Hill] won`t you)
