The Christmas album Glory in the Highest by Shane and Shane is one of my favorites. They take old classics and put them to a new beat, or they use the originals as jumping off points to create new worshipful songs. The title song Glory in the Highest is one example of the latter. They take the theme of the carol Angels We Have Heard On High and tie it into the purpose of Advent. Unfortunately I could not find a good recording of this song on YouTube but here are the lyrics. I encourage you to find the song on your own.
Holy One
Light of the world, Jesus
The Holy One of Israel
The One foretold He came
Deliverer of Israel
The One foretold He came
Born of man
He became the lowest
To show us
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
The Chosen One of Israel
The One foretold He came
We all like sheep have gone astray
We turned to our own way
But still He came
Born of man
He became the lowest
To show us
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
3x
Glory in the highest
(Holy One)
Glory in the highest
(Light of the world)
Glory in the highest
(Jesus)
