Christian Worship There Is Joy In Heaven Over One Sinner That Repenteth.
There was joy in heaven!
There was joy in heaven!
When this goodly world to frame,
The Lord of light and mercy came:
Shouts of joy were heard on high,
And the stars sang from the sky,
Glory to God in heaven!
There was joy in heaven!
There was joy in heaven!
When of love the midnight beam
Dawned on the towers of Bethlehem;
And along the echoing hill
Angels sang-On earth good will,
And glory in the heaven!
There is joy in heaven!
There is joy in heaven!
When the sheep that went astray
Turns again to virtue’s way;
When the soul by grace subdued
Sobs its prayer of gratitude,
Then is there joy in heaven!
