The Rebel Black Dot Song of the 3rd Day of Christmas

David Archuleta, "Joy to the World" via iTunes, (free) Single of the Week (The Last Jolly Man)

Commentary: The music of this rendition of "Joy to the World" is pop schlock, but the the words are majestic & beautiful & Archuleta is an able singer.
"Joy to the world,
The Lord is come!
Let Earth receive her king,
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing.

"Joy to the world,
The Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ,
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy…

"He rules the world
With truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love…"
