I Hear Angela's Song

Beneath the darkness of heavy hearts, Tears from nowhere weigh me down, But I hear a sound, A mighty sound, Merry men, Laughing tongues wagging, And I hear a sound, A mighty sound, Lost memories rush in like tides, Hands throw roses, Landing like stones above the ground, What a mighty sound, Beyond the dark into the light, I hear a mighty sound, Scaring the moon, stars turn off their lights, And I hear a sound, Tomorrow appears with a glorious sun, Mourning is over, Night has fallen behind my shoulders, And I hear a sound, Children are born and some will marry, I hear a mighty sound, Clouds carry my burdens while songs fill the air, Rains quench my thirst with every captured tear, And I hear a sound, A mighty sound, I can't see you from here, In the morning's light I have slipped away, But I hear a sound, A mighty sound, Inside your pain something remains, A mighty sound, A mighty sound, I hear shadows fall, The sea turning black and days turning pale, And I hear a sound, A mighty sound, Blood on my tongue as I kiss death, I hear everything you say, I feel your pain, Your tears heavy and wet, I can't see, But I hear a sound, Inside my heart, There, With my last breath, You'll hear a sound, It's God's Almighty Sound. ~Vickie Thayer~
