This is The Time To Be Joyful - By Pepper Choplin 

This is the time to be Joyful is a piece composed by Pepper Choplin.
It was written for Christ the King, general services and alternate words for Advent.
This is the time to be Joyful takes its scriptural connotations from Psalm 46, Psalm 68:3 and Habakkuk 3:17-19; which are all centered on rejoicing in the Lord with full assurance that He is our strength, sustenance, refuge and a very present help in times of trouble.
The one who would neither forsake us nor leave us in our struggle but raise us up and empower us to always sing a joyful song and bless His Holy name.
Oh, Come, let us praise the Lord together with bright joyfulness and create an atmosphere of excitement that will fill the Sanctuary with Joy.
