Look there! the Christ,
our Brother,
comes resplendent from
the gallows tree
and what he brings in
his hurt hands
is life on life for you and me.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Good Jesus Christ inside his pain
looked down Golgotha's stony slope
and let the blood flow from his flesh
to fill the springs of living hope.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Good Jesus Christ, our Brother died
in darkest hurt upon the tree
to offer us the worlds of light
that live inside the Trinity.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Look there! the Christ, our Brother,
comes resplendent from
the gallows tree
and what he brings
in his hurt hands
is life on life for you and me.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
Joy! joy! joy to the heart
and all in this good day's dawning.
