JOY TO THE WORLD

Listen to the song; #2 on COLLABORATIONS

2010 - Towards the end of the year, I invited Cassie Perkins over to help me with some background vocals on several of my songs. While she was there she asked me to help her record her Christmas song. The timing seemed unusual until I finally figured out it was in ¾ time.

She told me not to put too many symbols into the drums, but otherwise gave me all the latitude I wanted in producing and arranging the song. I loved the song immediately and am proud to include it on my COLLABORATIONS collection. Here are the lyrics:

JOY TO THE WORLD
© 2010 Words & music by Cassie Perkins, recording & performance by Cassie Perkins and Reggie Michaud

Saint Nicholas knew of a treasure foretold
It’s worth would be great; so much greater than gold
And to the earth it would shine; His light
This gift was a child born on this bright night

A light to bring revelation to all
Glory; salvation beyond Israel
Peace and good will to all who believe
Jesus is He; Lamb of God, Prince of Peace

Halleluia… Joy to the world!
The King of heaven is come to the earth
Peace to all men; glory on high
All heaven sings; Jesus is born
He’s born tonight

So sing all ye saints rise up and proclaim
There is no end to this kingdom He reigns
Christmas the time to remember His birth
Creator of all came to love the whole earth

Halleluia… Joy to the world!
The King of heaven is come to the earth
Peace and good will; glory on high
All heaven sings; Jesus is born
He’s born tonight… tonight
He’s born tonight
