We Have Seen His Glory

Have you not seen?

Have you not heard?

In the beginning was the Word. . .

And the Word became flesh

And made His dwelling among us.

We have seen His glory,

The glory of the one and only Son
From the Father,
Full of grace and truth.

Heralded by angels,

Worthily adored,

He came down from heaven.

He is King and Lord,

The promised One,

The worthy Son.

And the Word became flesh

And made His dwelling among us.

We have seen His glory,
The glory of the one and only Son
From the Father,
Full of grace and truth.

See the Servant lowly,

Lamb of God divine,

Living water holy,

Bread of life, true wine,

The promised One,

The worthy Son.

"Forgive them, Father" He cried,

As blood flowed from His side.

Beneath the blackening skies

Love shone from His eyes.

Oh, now we have seen!

Now we have heard!

In the beginning was the Word. . .

And the Word became flesh

And made His dwelling among us.

We have seen His glory,

The glory of the one and only Son
From the Father,
Full of grace and truth.

Yes, we have seen His glory,
From the Father,
Full of grace and truth,

Full of grace and truth,

Full of grace and truth.

21st Century Adam and Eve

Hey there, where did you come from?

Sweet thing, are you a figment of my mind?

I've got Love; would you like some?

Rest here. Yes, I know you have been maligned

By fools who have tried to redefine you.

They haunt you; they don't know you like I do.

Picture yourself standing right next to me,

Somewhere beyond the 21st century.

Love is something higher

Than what these so-called experts fathom.

Our gain is their loss.

Say the word, and we'll leave.

Dear, if I respire,

And if I really am your Adam,

It's only because

You're my ravishing Eve.

You know you are my heartsong;

Sweet thing, climbing the charts within my soul.

Upwards, and evermore endlong,

Our bond will be a light the stars extol.

We'll build a home in a brand new Eden;

This world's chaotic madness won't bleed in.

Counterfeit loves implode when they harden;

Our Love awaits us in a new Garden...cuz

Love is something higher

Than what these so-called experts fathom.

Our gain is their loss.

Say the word, and we'll leave.

Dear, if I respire,

And if I really am your Adam,

It's only because

You're my ravishing Eve.

Come, walk with me

In the cool of the day.

Love has set us free;

No need to hide away.

This temporal sphere

We will transcend.

We've nothing to fear

As we ascend.

Love is something higher

Than what these so-called experts fathom.

Our gain is their loss.

Say the word, and we'll leave.

Dear, if I respire,

And if I really am your Adam,

It's only because

You're my ravishing Eve.
