Lyrics
I just wanted to let you know
You've done good and all is right with the world
I know it gets hard when mockingbirds don't shine
And your wings have been clipped with lies
Oh my wounded soldier girl
Hair up in pigtails my broken dove
May your peace messenger find you in the dark
Glory, my sister sweet
Let the truth burn into your heart
A fiery line, let its gospel shine
To remind you of who you are
Let the troubles that frighten you
Turn into ashes to give you proof
That my love is always all around you
Glory, my sister sweet
Let the truth burn into your heart
A fiery line, let its gospel shine
To remind you of who you are
Oh my wounded soldier
Oh my broken dove
May your peace come and find you in the dark
Glory, my sister sweet
Let the truth burn into your heart
A fiery line, let its gospel shine
To remind you of who you are
And Glory just wait and see
How your life will be inside your heart
Watch your troubles burn and your light return
To remind you of who you are
