Joy to the world!

Christmas Day is over but most people forget that Christmas is celebrated for a period of 12 days... which means, its only the 2nd day since Christ's birth some 2000 years ago. I feel that Christmas is so commercialized these days that almost everyone celebrates it by having some form of gathering or party. Not to mention the crazy sale in the shopping centres...

So, lets take a step back and truely appreciate the significance of Christmas.


Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.

Joy to the world, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations proveThe glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
