Underneath the starry sky
A mother holds a child tonight
All is calm and all is bright
She sings to him a lullaby
Gloria, I hear the angels singin'
Gloria, all of the heavens are ringin'
Gloria, the Savior of the world is in her arms
She's starin' at the face of God
The face of God
She looks upon the Great I Am
The gift of heaven in her hands
Born to save the sons of earth
He was born to give them second birth
Gloria, I hear the angels singin'
Gloria, all of the heavens are ringin'
Gloria, the Savior of the world is in her arms
She's starin' at the face of God
The face of God
Starin' at the face of God
She's starin' at the face of God
Gloria, I hear the angels singin'
Gloria, all of the heavens are ringin'
Gloria, the Savior of the world is in her arms
Gloria, I hear the angels singin'
Gloria, all of the heavens are ringin'
Gloria, the Savior of the world is in her arms
She's starin' at the face of God
The face of God
