Joyful, la canzone di Natale per grandi e bambini con testo

Chi ha visto “Sister Act” la riconoscerà sicuramente. La canzone è Joyful, una meravigliosa melodia dedicata al Natale che i bambini più grandi possono imparare a memoria (anche per allenare il loro inglese, perché no). E della quale potete comunque leggere la traduzione insieme a loro, per riflettere un po’ sulla festività che stiamo per celebrare. Una canzone di Natale che renderà speciali i momenti passati in famiglia e che potrete mettere come colonna sonora durante il pomeriggio, mentre i bambini disegnano o si dedicano ai lavoretti natalizi.

Joyful, video e testo della canzone per bambini

Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light
Fill us with the light
Oh, fill us with the light of day……

Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Drive it away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us
Fill us with the light of day
Light of day!

(Check the rhyme)
Joyful, Joyful
Lord we adore Thee
An’ in my life
I put none before Thee
Cuz since I was a youngster
I came to know
That you was the only way to go

Ritornello

So I had to grow an’ come to an understandin’
That I’m down with the King so now I’m demandin’
That you tell me who you down with, see
Cuz all I know is that I’m down with G-O-D
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
You down with G-O-D?
(Yeah, you know me)
Who’s down with G-O-D?
(Everybody)

Come and join the chorus
The mighty, mighty chorus
Which the morning stars begun
The Father of love is reigning over us

Right away

What have you done for Him lately?
Ooh, ooh, ooh yeah
What have you done for Him lately?

He watches over everything
So we sing

Joyful, Joyful
Lord, we adore Thee
God of glory
Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee
Hail Thee as the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin, sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Drive it away
Giver of immortal gladness ( won’t you)
Fill us ( Fill us with the light of day, Lord, fill us)
oh Fill us ( oh we need You, yes we do, fill us)
Fill us ( yeah…, oh, oh yeah)
Fill us ( with the light of day, Lord)
….
(We need you, come right away,
We need you, need you today, we need you,
I’m here to say fill us, fill us, fill us, fill us…)

Fill us with the light of day ( oh, yeah)
Light of day! And ever, and ever worship God.
