Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee

A Christian hymn by Henry Van Dyke written to the tune of Ode To Joy by Ludwig Van Beethoven. The lyrics speak of joyful adoration we have for God - who gives us joy and gladness in times of sorrow, who is the Creator of all things, who has given us a model to follow in forgiving and loving others, and who enables us to persevere onward in life victoriously.

Likewise we can be joyful Christians because Jesus has forgiven us our sins when He bled and died on the cross for us. We can be joyful because He has given us a new life and relationship with God. We can be joyful because He has also given us the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us in holy living and in proclaiming the Gospel to others. Indeed we can be joyful only because of what Jesus has done.
