[Verse 1]
In the silence of the night
A long awaited holy cry
hands that formed the moon and stars
reached for you and stole your heart

[Verse 2]
Highly favored you were called
To the hardest job of all
You were only just a girl
To cradle the weight of the world

[Chorus]
Glory to God in the highest (x2)

[Verse 3]
As years went by you freed his hand
you watched your boy become a man
you did you best to keep him safe
but he was never yours to claim

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Gloria in Exceles deo
Gloria in Exceles deo

[Verse 4]
Mother of the Son of God
See your child on a cross
Life you gave Him, now He gives
He was born so you live

[Chorus]

[Outro]
His name's adored throughout the earth
But you're the one who loved him first
