Share the gift of eternal joy,
let it rise out of you each day
let the happiness you feel
leave its mark, along your way.
Tell everyone about Jesus,
the cheerfulness that He brings
let them know, He’s the reason
why your heart, this season sings.
Show your joyfulness,
raise your hands, sing your praise
let people see it is Jesus
who has you feeling so amazed.
Let your joy be seen by all,
for the glory of your salvation
let them see the birth of Jesus
is the cause for your elation.
Share the gift of eternal joy,
everyday throughout the year
let the world see your blissfulness
is more than holiday cheer!

they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.”
