Hymn Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee words by Henry Van Dyke, 1907 music: Hymn to Joy, from the 9th Symphony of Ludwig van Beethoven Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, opening to 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 of day! Mr. Van Dyke, said of this hymn: These verses are simple expressions of common Christian feelings and desires in this present time—hymns of today that may be sung together by people who know the thought of the age, and are not afraid that any truth of science will destroy religion, or any revolution on earth overthrow the kingdom of heaven. Therefore this is a hymn of trust and joy and hope. You can find the full lyrics here: Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you, I whom you have delivered. Psalm 71:23
Good morning to you. What a beautiful spring day we are having as a nice shower of rain is coming down off and on for the day. Love the fresh smell of the rain. Truly warms ones heart.
Made up some Coconut Macaroon flavored coffee for the day to put a smile on my face as I enjoy watching the rain come down ever so gentle. My goodness this week is really flying by and some of the family will be visiting on Saturday which gives me such joy. May you have a wonderful day . Smiles Gloria
