[00:12.66] The stars that fill the summer night

[00:16.70] Look down from above.

[00:20.42] The beauty of the day and night

[00:23.67] You fashioned with love.

[00:27.17] Your hands prepared the land and sea,

[00:30.41] And ev’rything that came to be

[00:34.17] Brought joy to your heart.

[00:39.41] (CHORUS)

[00:40.66] There is joy in your creation,

[00:44.41] In the message of salvation,

[00:47.43] And the Paradise to come.

[00:54.44] But to have your love forever

[00:57.42] Is a real and lasting treasure.

[01:01.41] You alone will prove to be

[01:08.44] Our joy eternally.

[01:30.46] Jehovahs, we have all we need

[01:34.16] To bring us delight—

[01:37.45] The things we hear and touch and see

[01:40.91] And feel deep inside.

[01:44.16] You gave us such a perfect start,

[01:47.71] Eternity in ev’ry heart,

[01:50.92] And joy in our lives.

[01:57.19] (CHORUS)

[01:57.92] There is joy in your creation,

[02:01.42] In the message of salvation,

[02:04.69] And the Paradise to come.

[02:11.18] But to have your love forever

[02:14.91] Is a real and lasting treasure.

[02:18.67] You alone will prove to be

[02:25.43] Our joy eternally.

[02:33.97] (BRIDGE)

[02:39.45] This joy could not be ours

[02:44.20] Without the gift of your Son.

[02:47.69] His sacrifice has paid the price

[02:51.17] So joy could be ours for all time.

[02:57.41] (CHORUS)

[02:58.17] There is joy in your creation,

[03:01.67] In the message of salvation,

[03:04.94] And the Paradise to come.

[03:11.42] But to have your love forever

[03:15.16] Is a real and lasting treasure.

[03:18.70] You alone will prove to be

[03:25.66] Our joy eternally.

[03:31.46] (CHORUS)

[03:32.42] There is joy in your creation,

[03:36.17] In the message of salvation,

[03:39.42] And the Paradise to come.

[03:45.71] But to have your love forever

[03:49.67] Is a real and lasting treasure.

[03:52.66] You alone will prove to be

[03:58.93] Our joy eternally.
