Hymn Lyrics: Matt Maher – Glory (Let There Be Peace)
One star burns in the darkness
Shines with the promise, Emmanuel
One child born in the stillness
Living within us, Emmanuel
We’re singing glory, glory
Let there be peace, let there be peace
Singing glory, glory,
Let there be peace, let it is start in me
One voice speaks for the voiceless
Hope for the hopeless, Emmanuel
One love brings us together
Now and forever, Emmanuel
We’re singing glory, glory
Let there be peace, let there be peace
Singing glory, glory,
Let there be peace, let it is start in me
Do not be afraid His love is strong enough to save us
Nothing stands in the way His love is strong enough to lead us
Do not be afraid His love is strong enough to save us
Nothing stands in the way His love is strong enough to lead us
We sing glory, glory let there be peace, let there be peace
Singing glory, glory let there be peace, let it start in me
Singing glory, glory let there be peace, let there be peace
Singing glory, glory let there be peace, let it start in me
Let there be peace, let it start in me
