04 Feb 01 - 03:51 AM (#389542) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Joy To The World From: Joe Offer Our choir director used to do a religious version of Axton's "Joy to the World" in our Catholic parish. The one time the choir did the song when I was there, I went and sat with the congregation and didn't sing. I threatened to walk out if he did it again - and for once, he actually respected my sensitivities. He claims Axton himself wrote the religious lyrics and that it starts out:
I've heard beyond those two lines only once, because those two lines were enough to start me screaming in protest. Just to satisfy my curiosity, does anybody know the rest of it, and if Axton really wrote the "religious" version? Am I right in thinking this is truly tacky, or should I be more open-minded? -Joe Offer- |

Jeremiah was a prophet Moses was a prophet too Jesus was the Son of God & man His love shines down on you.... Joy to the world All the boys & girls now Joy to the children of Galilee Joy to you & me The reason to be a Christian Is just as plain as day The sermon on the mountain Was made to show the way... When you're lost out on life's highway & you have no place to hide The keys are in the Kingdom & we're all welcome inside... but it wasn't Christmasy enough, so I rewrote the 1st & 2nd verses & kept the 3rd... http://c-4-c.com/MP3s/RARE_GEMS-recommended/JoyToTheWorld-DEMO.mp3 Tamara |
