lyrics

There was a boy, went for a walk, down by the stream, picked out some rocks,
And stepped out on, the battlefield, no shield or sword, for him to wield.
The giant jeered, and boasted loud, the little boy just held his ground
And pulled a stone out of his pouch, and raised his sling, and slung it round singing…

Glory to God in the Highest! Glory to God!

A coward man, was hiding low, an angel called, told him to go
And lead his kin, to overthrow the burdens of their wicked foes.
His troop was small, three hundred men. The foe too vast to count, like sand.
Still they around the foe that night, raised up their horns, and jars of light singing…

Glory to God in the Highest! Glory to God! Glory to God!

A pilgrim folk, in desert sun, were told to take, a fortress town.
No siege ramps built, no batter ram, the word of God, would be their plan.
Six days they marched, around its sides, the seventh day, the seventh time,
The trumpets made a victor’s sound. The people raised, a mighty shout singing…

Glory to God in the Highest! Glory to God! Glory to God!

A virgin aches in labor pains. She’s giving birth, to him who saves,
There in the barn, the humble means, the filthy rags, the trough unclean.
The rock now strikes, the giants face. The jars now break, the light dismays.
Jericho’s walls, are tumbling down, for Christ is born, the angels singing...

Glory to God in the Highest! Glory to God! Glory to God!
Glory to God in the Highest! Glory to God! Glory to God!
