1.
Joyful the news that the angles were telling:
Joyful the music the holy anthems swelling:
Joyful the eye that beheld the heav'nly glory:
Joyful the ear that heard the sacred story
Of a savior born.
Chorus:
Joyful the News!
Joyful the News!
Joyful the News!
Oh let ev'ry bell be ringing!
Joyful the News!
Let ev'ry heart be singing
Of the Saviour born.

Joyful the News! Oh, away with thy sadness:
Joyful the news! Let each heart be fill'd with gladness:
Jesus has come. He is lying in a manger:
Jesus has come. Behold the heav'nly Stranger:
Tis the Savior born.
Refrain.
3.
Joyful the child who the glad news is singing:
Joyful the music the mery bells are ringing:
Joyful the soul that the Savior hath forgiven:
Joyful the heart that has a hope in heaven.
Through the Savior born.
Refrain.
