Gloria! (The Song of the Shepherds)

After the angels 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 Was a choir of angels singing The shepherds 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 Was a choir of angels singing The shepherds ears were ringing, they were ringing with Gloria, Gloria Now everything is going to change Christ the Lord is born today wohh, wohh In a land under the rule of the priests and kings Only shepherds heard the song That the angels sang The humble are the keepers of the secrets Of the kingdom that is coming With the song that will break upon the world like ten thousand horses running Gloria, gloria The shepherds, they were singing Now all our ears are ringing, they're still ringing with Gloria, Gloria Now everything is going to change The Christ, the Lord is born today Gloria, Glory to God Glory to God, woh Gloria, Glory to God Glory to God In excelsisdeo... One day He'll come again To bring us a brand new song But until then, we'll sing along With those shepherd boys
