Gloria

(album: The Light Came Down - 2016)

Here the sound of bells ring
In the cold night air we sing
Songs of joy, peace, and love

Say goodnight and journey home
Through the leafless woods alone
Silence in the snow is like a dream

Diamonds on the hills reflect the thrill
Of all the glory that has fallen to the earth

All of life's surrendering
To the death that winter brings
In hope of new life

On this holy night
Holy night
We remember Christ

Come in from the cold
Come and rest your soul
Join us by the fire

Tonight the stories told
Ancient but never old
Of when the Saviour came

All the angels sang
Peace on earth good will to men
A child has been born

And all of us are suffering
Beneath the weight of death and sin
In hope of new life
All our hopes made good in Christ

On this Holy Night
Holy Night
We worship Christ

Gloria, Gloria
Gloria, Gloria
Angels we have heard on high
In Excelsis Deo
