Joy to the World 歌詞
Down in yon forest there stands a hall
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
It's cover'd all over with purple and pall
And i love my lord jesus above anything
In that hall there stands a bed
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
It's cover'd all over with scarlet and red
And i love my lord jesus above anything
At the bed side there lies a stone
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
Which the sweet virgin mary knelt upon
And i love my lord jesus above anything
Under that bed there runs a flood
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
The one half runs water
And other runs blood
And i love my lord jesus above anything
At the bed's foot there grows a thorn
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
Whichever blows blossoms
Since he was born
And i love my lord jesus above anything
Over that bed the moon shines bright
The bells of paradise i heard them ring
Denoting our saviour was born this night
And i love my lord jesus above everything
