Joy to the World! The Lord Is Come...
"Joy to the World" is my favourite Christmas hymn and Mariah Carey's version (complete with Gospel Choir) from her 1994 Christmas album is the one that captures the spirit of the song best (for me). This is a big song with big proclamations (Joy to the world...Let men their songs employ... ). Let there be joy. Joy is now. In case you were wondering. The heart of this song beats audaciously, and it says "if you've been waiting for Christ, wait no more. Here he is. Let everything and everyone sing. Let the earth be glad."
for the record, Jesus, I repeat the sounding joy of you, my king, who WAS and IS and IS TO COME!
