In the wilderness, in the
darkness
the fields, watching our
sheep
Going about our business
with not enough sleep
If God’s glory descended on
us
if the angels called our
name
would we be terrified like
them
before the great I Am
Would we have listened
intently
would we have steeled our
trembling legs
Would we have run to Jesus
to bow at His manger bed
If God’s glory descended on
us
if this were the night of
His coming
descending on the wings of
the clouds
to bring His people home
Would we run to Jesus
to grasp His royal gown
Would we cleave to our
Savior
would we wear a crown
