Glory Down

KB builds "Glory Down" around a bilingual call-and-response: the English refrain pleads for God's glory to descend while the verses slide into Spanish for the most personal lines. The song opens with a confession of poverty that turns into wealth — no money at birth, but riches found in God's presence, and new strength where there was none. A bent stick can't be straightened, the lyric admits, yet a crooked pencil still draws straight lines in God's hands, an image of grace reaching what human effort can't fix. The chest that once held ice now carries air; a dried-up life meets living water. The chorus widens the plea from one voice to many: every nation will sing, from every corner to every sea. Later verses turn defiant — an ice-cold world can't freeze a soul that stays free even in chains, and the singer declares he'd die ten times over for this hope, chin high, no bankroll needed because he belongs to God. The closing Spanish refrain asks Christ to come with glory and pour out victory, ending where the song began: a simple, repeated Amen.
