about

The lyrics of Joy to the World were written by the English hymn writer Isaac Watts and based on Psalm 98 from the Bible. First published in 1719, the words originally glorified the second coming of Christ – not celebrating the birth of Christ. Only the second half of Watts’ lyrics are used today. The music was adapted and arranged by Lowell Mason in 1839, from an older melody that is believed to have originated from Handel, but he did not compose the whole tune. Mason is also known for composing the ever popular children’s tune, “Mary Had a Little Lamb.”
