Glory To God On High
© Michael Krahn (2009)

Songs in the heavens from angels that shine
Glory to God on high
One tiny baby, the angels proclaim
That man no more may die

Born in a stable with oxen and lamb
Hear the Savior cry
Mary will comfort and Joseph will love
Now sound asleep he lies

REFRAIN   
Glory to God on high
Glory to God on high

Kings come to see him, the gifts that they bring
Shine in that great starlight
Herod will seek him but he will not find
No, not on this silent night

Laid in a manger, in humble estate
Already the cross in sight
He would be willing to lay down his life
Forsaking his great might

REFRAIN
Glory to God on high
Glory to God on high

To Mary the favored did Gabriel come
And “Yes!” was her reply
And from that moment the Spirit of God
Dwelt with her inside

REFRAIN
Glory to God on high
Glory to God on high
One tiny baby, the angels proclaim
That man no more may die
Glory to God on high
