Song: Joy to the World
Lyrics: Isaac Watts, 1719
Tune: Antioch, C.M. (attributed to George Frideric Handel)
Arrangement: Lowell Mason, 1836
He rules the world with truth and grace!
At the end of our retrospectives and other special episodes, we like to close things out by singing a song. Usually the segment is called Mediocre Karaoke, but this time I recorded the four parts of a hymn in harmony and edited them together.
Be warned: I'm a professional programmer rather than a singer for a reason. Michael Duchemin and Stateless Code disclaim any and all liability for psychological trauma you may experience as a result of listening to me sing this song.

00:01:25 Joy to the World performance
00:03:11 Post-song banter
