After the angel's song
|
Everyone held their breath
|
As the darkness rushed back in
|
Upon those shepherd boys
|
|
Staring into the night
|
Climbing up off their knees
|
With their hearts on fire
|
They were trembling with fear and joy
|
|
Gloria , Gloria!
|
It was a choir of angels singing
|
The shepherd's ears were ringing
|
They were ringing with
|
|
Gloria, Gloria!
|
Now everything is going to change
|
Christ the Lord is born today
|
|
Racing down from the hills
|
Running like children run
|
Reckless and wild with a song that
|
Made them young again
|
|
As the field beneath their feet
|
Turned into city streets
|
They were crying out
|
"Have you heard, have you heard
|
Oh Bethlehem!?"
|
|
Gloria , Gloria!
|
It was a choir of angels singing
|
The shepherd's ears were ringing
|
|
Gloria, Gloria!
|
Now everything is going to change
|
Christ the Lord is born today
|
|
In a land under the rule
|
Of the priests and kings
|
Only shepherds heard the song
|
That the angels sing
|
|
The humble are the keepers
|
Of the secrets of the Kingdom that is coming
|
With a song that will break upon
|
The world like 10.000 horses running
|
|
Gloria, Gloria!
|
The shepherds they were singing
|
Now all our ears are ringing
|
|
Gloria, Gloria!
|
Now everything is going to change
|
Christ the Lord is born today
|
|
Gloria!
|
Glory to God, Glory to God
|
|
Gloria!
|
Glory to God, Glory to God
|
|
In excelsius deo
|
|
One day he'll come again
|
To bring us a brand new song
|
But till then we'll sing along
|
With those shepherd boys
|
