A Song From Above

There is a song from above That takes away our tears Flowing freely from above Like a stream of flowing river. It’s God’s melody of love That quiets all our fears A song the God composed Like an orchestra, it flows. By his angels, it descends. To the saints and the faithful below Abundant life, it gives to behold. A heavenly symphony at glow. Too fine for mortal heart to withhold. The song softly goes forth Every moment, every hour But when the human soul, encompassed With earthly decayed showers Like the garment of filthy robe descend. And the song is no more ours. Oh heavenly father By thy own Holy Spirit Send down the heavenly music So true, so beautiful And so soul refreshing That those who hear it May long to hear it more.
