Glory to God in the Highest



Glory to God in the Highest
The troubles of the week peel away on Sunday Morn
Sing in Praise Uplifting Spirit Joy Love Thanks
The organ shakes my very core
Like the Holy Spirit Annointing
With folk we share the Parson's Words
Delivered from
The Almighty
Glory to God in the Highest
