Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love;

Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, Opening to 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 of day!

All Your works with joy surround Thee, Earth and heav'n reflect Thy rays,

Stars and angels sing around Thee, Center of unbroken praise;

Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flow'ry meadow, flashing sea,

Singing bird and flowing fountain, call us to rejoice in Thee!

Always giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest,

Well-spring of the joy of living, Ocean-depth of happy rest!

Thou our Father, Christ our Brother, all who live in love are thine;

Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine.

Mortals, join the mighty chorus, which the morning stars began;Father love is reigning o’er us, brother love binds man to man.Ever singing, march we onward,

victors in the midst of strife;Joyful music leads us sunward

in the triumph song of life.

All the Poor and Powerless

All the poor and powerlessAnd all the lost and lonelyAnd all the thieves will come confessAnd know that You are holyAnd know that You are holy

And all will sing out hallelujah, And we will cry out hallelujah

All the hearts who are contentAnd all who feel unworthyAnd all who hurt with nothin' leftWill know that You are holy

And all will sing out hallelujah, And we will cry out hallelujah

Shout it, Go on and scream it from the mountainsGo on and tell it to the masses That He is God

And all will sing out hallelujah, And we will cry out hallelujah

Shout it, Go on and scream it from the mountainsGo on and tell it to the masses That He is God

Galatians 3:23 -29 (NLT)

Before the way of faith in Christ was available to us, we were placed under guard by the law. We were kept in protective custody, so to speak, until the way of faith was revealed. Let me put it another way. The law was our guardian until Christ came; it protected us until we could be made right with God through faith. And now that the way of faith has come, we no longer need the law as our guardian.

For you are all children of God through faith in Christ J esus . And all who have been united with Chris t in baptism have put on Chris t, like putting on new clothes . There is no longer J ew or Gentile , s lave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Chris t J esus . And now that you belong to Chris t, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs , and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you. (NLT)
