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

His blessings
flow 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 prove The glories
of His righteousness,
And wonders of His

wonders of His

wonders, wonders, of His love.
