This is the Westminster Foundations introduction to the beginning of a “Joy to the World” series dedicated to exemplifying, proclaiming, interceding, and administrating the lex Christi “glories of his righteousness.” The Lord must “Be Thou [Our] Vision” in order to bring “Joy to the World”! Through Christ’s lex Christi righteous rule over the nations, the redeemed nations “prove” that “truth and grace” and “wonders of his love” blessings flow everywhere, removing the curses of lex Christi sins, consequent sorrows among men and thorns in the ground. Christ’s kingdom rule causes men, fields, floods, rocks, hills, and plains to repeat the sounding joy of the blessed extension of His kingdom over the things that have been cursed. This hymn captures the essence of the scope of this project, to represent Christ by ‘proving’ the lex Christi glories of his righteousness that extend blessings and reverse curses among men and the creation.
