Angels long to look into these things (repeat 3x)
The glory of Jesus
He has given us new birth into a living hope
Through his resurrection from the dead
He has given us new birth into inheritance
That can never perish, spoil or fade
In this we greatly rejoice even though we suffer
Grief and trials, we have genuine faith
We are filled with joy, we love him, we believe in him
Even though we have not seen his face
Joy inexpressible and glorious
We are receiving the goal of our faith (and our faith)
Angels long to look into these things (look into the night is over) (I hear you saying)
The glory of Jesus
The prophets intently searched, searched with the greatest care
To find the time when Christ would come
It was not revealed to those who were searching
But now we know the glory of the Son
Concerning this salvation the grace that has come to us
Praise God the mystery's been revealed
We are filled with joy, we love him we believe in him
And angels long to look in these things
Joy inexpressible and glorious
angels long to look into these things
(Oh!...heavenly host)
Angels long to look into these things (angels longing to look) (they were longing and seeing & praise)
The glory of Jesus (they wanted to see and they wanted to know to see the wonderful working of the holy ghost)
Oh! the prophets searched intently,
to know this glorious joy
find the holy message that is true
Oh! the angels up in heaven
are longing now to see
the gospel that has been revealed to you
Angels long to look into these things (what a wonderful thought to know) (Oh! the heavenly host) (and they gathered around)
The glory of Jesus (glory to those)
Angels long to look into these things (ages past wanted to know and they wanted to see) (I...see oh yeah) (I see how the lord would redeem the glory) (with his glory to praise of his heavenly might name)
Angels long to see his glory
Angels long to see his glory
we have see his glory
