I Saw a Bird

I saw a Bird

This morning I saw a bird up in a tree
A most beautiful bird I ever did see
A pure white dove as white as snow 
It came for a visit to let me know 

Good morning my friend 
What a lovely day, 
Iv come for a chat ,            
Please come my way

He flew to the bench 
And sat on the arm 
I sat down beside him 
He had such charm

He said it's like this 
Iv been sent from above 
There's no need to worry 
Gods message has come

He stands there beside you 
There at your side 
He knows you are hurting deep inside

He knows your in pain, 
And life's hard as you know 
He sending an angel 
I thought I'd let you know

He knows you are grieving 
For the life you had 
And he said for me to tell you 
Just give it time 

For each flower that opens 
Into a beautiful bloom
Time will be passing 
It will heal your wounds

God is beside you 
The Angels are here 
Just hold out your hand 
And they will be there 

The beautiful white dove 
Had to say good bye
As he flew off 
Angels fill the sky .

I sat on the bench All alone 
I knew God was beside me 
I really wasn't alone ,
