GLORY TO GOD [Verse 1] The sickness took me faster than I knew Body growing weak, the light was fading too They sent a message far across the land “Lord, the one You love is slipping through our hands” [Verse 2] My final breath escaped into the night They closed my eyes and wrapped me tight in white Carried me into the cold and silent cave Sealed the tomb behind them… four long days to wait [Verse 3] In the presence of my God I found my rest He spoke so gently, “This is not the end Your time on earth is not yet through, be still I’m calling you back… it is My will” [Chorus] And so I rest in His presence and breathe Him in I take a deep breath and I feel His light And I cry from the depths of my soul “Glory to God!” [Verse 4] From heaven’s peace I felt the time was near Jesus walking closer after days of tears He stood outside the cave that held my frame The air grew still… then I heard Him call my name [Verse 5] “Lazarus, come out!” — the voice cut through the dark My eyes flew open to a sudden spark I rose up from the stone still wrapped in white Alive again by His power and might [Chorus] And so I wake in the darkness and step outside I take a deep breath and I feel the light And I cry from the depths of my soul “Glory to God!” [Verse 6] The crowd stood frozen, eyes so wide with fear They couldn’t speak from all the awe and tears He said, “Take off the cloth and set him free” I fell into the arms of my family And I cry hey, hey, hey, hey I said hey… Glory to God! And I cry hey, hey, hey, hey I said hey… Glory to God! And I cry hey, hey, hey, hey I said hey… Glory to God! Ooh, ooh, ooooooooooh Ooooooooooooooh [Chorus] And so I wake in the darkness and step outside I take a deep breath and I feel the light And I cry from the depths of my soul “Glory to God!”
