Joyful. Joyfull We adore Thee
u jyful, Joyful, we adore Thee,
Gcl of Glory, God of Love;
.warts unfold like flowers before Thee,
0 enir_g to the Sun above.
Felt the clouds of sin and sadness,
Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
rill vs with the light of day.
All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
girth and heaven reflect Thy rays;
^tare and angels sing around Thee,
Centre of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vole and mountain,
Flowery meadow, flashing sea,
r`hanting bird and flowing fountain,
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
Thow art giving and forgiving,
Evsr blessing, ever bleat,
Well —spring of the joy of living,
Ocaan Oepth of happy rest!
i.iow are Father, Christ our brother,
All who live in love are `thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
lilt us to the joy divine.

Melody — Ludwig Jan Beethoven —
NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD
Now -ihank we all our God,
With heart and hand and voices,
Who wondrous things bath done,
In whom His world rejoices;
Who from our mother's arms
Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours to —day.
0 may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hcarta
And blessed peace to cheer us,
And keep us in His grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.
All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son, and "Him who reigns
With them in highest heaven,
The one ternal God,
Whom heaven and earth adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
