GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST
The Glory of God used to be made fully manifest;
It represented the Lord’s presence in righteousness.
It was with the children of Israel in their journeys;
It was to teach them that God was there always.
But Israel did not appreciate God’s glory;
It was slowly withdrawn from the nation, sadly.
For many years, the Glory of God was hidden;
But that Glory was once again revealed from Heaven.
Angels were sent to announce the birth of the Saviour;
Mankind would be given God’s unmerited favour.
The Glory of God was wonderfully manifested one Night;
This brought great encouragement and great delight.
The shepherds went to Bethlehem to see the King;
They saw the Saviour and their hearts did sing;
They could not help but speak of God’s Glory;
The Lord was with them and with Him is mercy!
