Joy to the world! the Lord is come; Let earth receive her King. Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room, And heav'n and nature sing, And heaven and nature sing, And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.

Additional quotes by Isaac Watts

Whene'er I take my walks abroad,
How many poor I see!
What shall I render to my God For all his gifts to me?

Tis true my form is something odd
But blaming me is blaming God
Could I create myself anew
I would not fail in pleasing you.

If I could reach from pole to pole
Or grasp the ocean with a span
I would be measured by the soul
The mind's the standard of the man.

In books, or work, or healthful play,
Let my first years be past,
That I may give for every day
Some good account at last.
