Oh how many years their hearts
Had wandered near and far
Forgetting what their fathers' God had done
But they were not left in darkness
Only by the kindness
Of their covenant-keeping God
So they waited
For His provision
The Son of David
Their deliverance

How glorious the thought
That the Holy Yahweh, God
Would keep His age-old promise to His chosen ones
That the Lord would bless the nations
Make a way for their salvation
How the prophets longed to see when hope would dawn
Oh how very glorious the thought

Oh to have been among the lowly
Shepherds when the holy
Hosts of angels filled the sky
Oh to have heard their voices saying
All those years of waiting
Were over for a child was born that night
Peace on earth
Goodwill to all men
For God's Messiah
He had come to them

And how glorious the thought
That the only Son of God
Would put on flesh to live among such fallen ones
That this child would heal the nations
Be the way of their salvation
How with gentleness the hope of all had dawned
Oh how very glorious the thought!

We rejoice in our Redeemer
Our faith's perfect keeper
He alone has saved us from our sin
And with boldness we proclaim
That Jesus is His name
That ev'ry sinning soul might yield to Him
Let us press on
With great endurance
Until the Lord comes
In His radiance

How glorious the thought
That the world will worship God
The day that He returns for all His Faithful Ones
Ev'ry tribe and ev'ry nation
Will declare the Lord's salvation
How the gates of Hell will quake when that day dawns

And how glorious the thought
That the Church will dwell with God
He will finish what He's started in His Chosen Ones
There will be no tears or night
God Himself will be our light
And that Sun will never set once it has dawned
Oh how very glorious the thought
Oh how very glorious the thought
