Gloria

If you lived on a mountain in a cave
And you woke to watch the sunrise every day
You'd know which one was Christmas morning
By the sun returning
And you could tell it on the mountain
If you lived in the days of a dazzling comet
In Virgo it's halo came down to the earth
If you heard all the mountains sing Gloria

In Excelsis Deo
In Excelsis Deo

If you answered the call to go follow that comet
Down from the mountain out to a barn
There among the livestock, a family of three
Two young parents and a swaddled newborn
You'd give em everything you could
Lay down your burdens and you'd offer something good
You'd give em everything you are
And trek up back the mountain in your shadow from the star

Gloria
