From the recording A Newborn King
Lyrics
There’s a newborn King / who’s turned everything / upside down
But the ‘small-k’ kings / are still clinging / to their crowns
With bloodied hands…
Yet still the star, it shines, on a weary world
And still our hearts, they pine, for a priceless pearl of hope… for us all
And we’re scrambling / for anything / to numb the pain
While the angels sing / that this newborn King / will break our chains
Once for all…
And still the star, it shines, on a weary world
And still our hearts, they pine, for a priceless pearl of hope… for us all
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
There’s a newborn King / who’s turned everything / upside down
But pretender kings / are still clinging / to their crowns
And so am I…
Yet still the star, it shines, on a weary world
And still our hearts, they pine, for a priceless pearl
And still the star, it shines, on a weary world
And still our hearts, they pine, for a priceless pearl of hope… for us all
