I Heard The Angels Cry

Across the golden sunset sky I heard them cry, I heard them cry I heard the silvered angels cry - I asked them why, I asked them why! They looked at me with saddened eyes Across the skies, across the skies Across the dark'ning twilight skies - "What shall we do if love all dies? " That they should be so deep forlorn My heart was torn, my heart was torn My heart was so completely torn - A sorrow which could not be borne. They said that they were so afraid Their hands they laid, their hands they laid Their hands they then so gently laid Upon their hearts - where love is made. They thought, one day, their hearts would die It made me sigh, it made me sigh It made me breathe a heartfelt sigh - So this, to them, was my reply: I told them not to be downcast This will not last, this will not last This will not yet forever last - That they will know when it has passed. And furthermore, don't be afright You'll see the light, you'll see the light You'll see the light so hold on tight - For ev'rythig will be alright. That love will never ever cease So be at peace, so be at peace So be at long eternal peace - And from your fear find sweet release. ©️1/10/2024 Valerie Dohren
