You hung the hopes of a world

on a shining star

ready to give just a glimpse

a little bit of who You are

when the heavens wink on a midnight clear

takes me back thirty years

and again i hear

glory, glory, angels sing

to the now and always King

glory to the One who brings

a little bit of who You are

i lay my head in a pasture bed

to this very day

there are a few of us left to the Master's work

is it true help is on its way?

the faintest flickers above have gone

but a shepherd greets me with dawn

saying, "I am the One"

suddenly there's nothing left of Him

but a little light burning deep within me

glory, glory angels sing

to the now and always King

glory to the One who brings

peace and life and everything
