I wrote this song after going caroling with a group from our church. We had a great time, riding a trolley around town, stopping to carol three or four times including a stop at Methodist Hospital here in Rochester. This was my attempt to write a fairly simple, hopefully easy to remember Christmas Carol! I even hear a trombone part behind some of it. I hope to be able to put some files out here that will allow you to hear the melodies soon!
May you feel and recognize God’s hand moving in your life today and always!
JOHN
‘Glory Comes!’
Jesus has come, Christmas is here
The day of his birth is the best of the year
Gloria, hallelujah, God’s son is born
The greatest of gifts on this Christmas morn
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Jesus was born on this day
Angel choir sings, Shepherds have come
To see the small child, to visit God’s Son
Gloria, hallelujah, our world has changed
Listen and rejoice at the sound of His name
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Jesus was born on this day
Three wise men came, traveling far
Led by a very miraculous star
Gloria, hallelujah, bearing great gifts
The joy of this birth, the whole world uplifts
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Jesus was born on this day
The day has come, our wait is through
The prophets foretelling has finally come true
Gloria, hallelujah, trumpets will sound
Spread word of his coming the whole world around
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Glory comes, glory comes, hallelujah
Jesus was born on this day
