Peter Mayer - Sing Joy lyrics

These days of winter have come to bury you No sign of spring no promise to carry you No flowers blooming in your window sill And the beat of your heart is too still... Joy joy joy in the morning Joy joy in the afternoon Joy joy joy for the child is born This night the promise is given to you Come gather together you children who wander Looking for dreams that the whole world has squandered You've lost them you've sold them for pockets of gold You long to come in from the cold... Oh sing Joy joy joy in the morning Joy joy in the afternoon Joy joy joy for the child is born This night the promise is given to you Lying in the cradle no warrior no king of the land Only a child would bring peace in the palm of his hand Singing joy joy joy Through trails and darkness fear and temptation You look for deliverance and some revelation With no song of spring you wait for the call Could there be nothing at all... Oh sing joy Joy joy joy in the morning Joy joy in the afternoon Joy joy joy for the child is born This night the promise is given to you
