Have you seen a newborn baby?
The wonder in her eyes
Every sight and sound's astounding
Every moment's a surprise
Mother's smiling at her laughter
Father's babbling like a child
Now they're cast into a new world
By the glory of her smile
Chorus:
We were glorious once
And we're glorious still
If we take the time to look
We can see that glory well
See that old man on the corner
Rags wrapped around his feet
A shopping cart to hold his life in
Begging on the street
Now turn the clock back sixty years
Who's that laughing little boy
Playing with his little sister
His momma's pride and joy
CHORUS
And when we reach out to each other
Or let a smile come shining through
For a moment feel the glory
No matter what else we've been through
CHORUS (repeat)
