- Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flow’rs before Thee,
Op’ning to 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 of day! - All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
Earth and heav’n reflect Thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around Thee,
Center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flow’ry meadow, flashing sea,
Singing bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee. - Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Wellspring of the joy of living,
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our Brother,
All who live in love are Thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine. - Mortals, join the happy chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife,
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life.

and the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. for the judgement which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many trespasses resulted in justification.
UNbelievable!
humanities offenses towards God became so great that He decided to give them a present.
he really loves us. and isnt mad at all! you would think that with all the god-hating going on he would be like forget you.. poof, earth and life gone. but no HE LOVES us.
For God SO LOVED the world that He sent Jesus...not to condemn the world, but to save it.
a good Father rescues his children from danger.
