[Lauryn Hill]
Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God
of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail
Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark
of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light
Fill
us with the light
Oh, fill us with the light of day......

Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee

Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Drive it away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us
Fill us with
the light of day
Light of day!

Joyful, Joyful

An' in my life
I put none
before Thee
Cuz since I was a youngster

understandin'
That I'm down with the King so now I'm demandin'
That you
tell me who you down with, see
Cuz all I know is that I'm down with G-O-D
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
You down with G-O-D?

Who's down with G-O-D?
