Joy To The World A Christmas Prayer

C(add2), F(add2) [4 beats per chord]

[C]Every year at Christmas, all [F]I can see
Are [C]pictures of the things I want a[F]round the tree
But this [Dm]year's a little [C/E]different
I'm not [F]thinking of [Am]myself
So my [F]prayer for this Christmas
Is [C/G]for somebody [G]else

So [Gsus4]I    p[G]ray
[C]Joy To the [G/C]World
[Am7]Peace for every [F]boy and girl

[C]God I know you're listening and [F]you can hear
[C]The need of every broken heart and [F]all their tears
I don't [Dm]have a lot to [C/E]offer
Just this [F]one simple [Am]prayer
That this [F]Christmas everyone would know
Some[C/G]body [G]cares...

So [Gsus4]I    p[G]ray
[C]Joy to the [G/C]world
[Am7]Peace for every [F]boy and girl
[C]Hope when life is [G/B]hard
[Am7]Light when every[F]thing seems dark

I [Dm7]pray that every [C/E]hungry soul
Will be [F]fed and will be [C/E]warm
That not a [Dm7]single soli[C/E]tary child
Would [F]suffer harm

[Dm7]And wars would find their [C/E]ending
As we [F]take another [C/E]view
[Dm7]My hope is that this [C/E]Christmas prayer
      [F]            [Gsus4] [G] [[Gsus4], [G]: 1 beat per chord]
Would somehow come tru--e

[Bb]  I [C/Bb]pray
Hu[F]manity [Bb]  would [C/Bb]rise
And [G/A]join [A]with me
And to[G/A]geth-[A]er we'll sing

Woah, woah
[D]Joy [To the [A]World] To all the world
[Bm7]Peace for every [G]boy and girl
Talking ‘bout [D]hope when life is [A]hard
[Bm7]Light when every[G]thing seems dark

I [Em7]pray that every [D/F#]hungry soul
Will be [G]fed and will be [D/F#]warm
That not a [Em7]single soli[D/F#]tary child
Would [G]suffer [Bm7]harm

And [Em7]Lord, we find their [D/F#]ending
As we [G]take another [D/F#]view
So now my [Em7]hope is that this [D/F#]Christmas prayer
Would [G]somehow come [A]true

[D]Joy To the [A]World
[Bb]Peace for every [G]boy and girl
