Lyrics:

The angel Gabriel from heaven came.
His wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame.
All hail said he, thou blessed mother Mary,
Most highly favoured lady.
Gloria!

For known a blessed mother thou shalt be.
All generations laud and honour thee.
Thy Son shall be Emmanuel by seers foretold.
Most highly favoured lady.
Gloria!

Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head. 
“To me be as it pleaseth God.” she said.
“My soul shall laud and magnify His holy name.”
Most highly favoured lady.
Gloria!

Of her Emmanuel the Christ was born 
In Bethlehem all on a Christmas morn. 
And Christian folk throughout the world shall ever say,
Most highly favoured lady.

Gloria! Gloria! Gloria!

Lyrics:

When is my king a-comin’?
Lord, hear my cry!
Lord, I am tired, and heavy is my burden.
The king is comin,
my king is comin' soon.

I'm down in the valley,
and starin' at the mountain.
You split the mighty waters of the Red Sea; 
Lord, will you split the rising waters all around me?

The king is comin’,
my king is comin' soon.

He showed up for Daniel,
He showed up for Moses,
He showed up for David when he fought Goliath.

He showed up for David,
He showed up for Moses,
He showed up for Daniel down with the lions.

The world is weary and heavy with its hunger;
we wait on your promise no matter how much longer.
A child will be comin, the prophets all have spoken; 
freeing the captives and healing all that's broken.

When the king comes 
see justice roll like thunder!
Mercy, peace, and compassion will roll like thunder!

The king is comin’,
my king is comin' soon.

My King Is Comin Soon
