Peter Walsh Poet Lyric

The Angels Lament

The Screams of the angels will deafen
Those with the conscience to hear
As the weight of millenia fades
So too does the weight of their fear
 
The sun at the crest of the morning
As vast as the lives it maintains
From the depths of the bottomless oceans
To the peaks of the highest mountains
 
                  chorus
There're fewer tomorrows than yesterdays
No promises written in stone
But Lord as I need you, you answer
And I know then I'm not so alone
Lord as I need you, you answer
I know now I'm not so alone
 
Mankind is engrossed in his profit
No interest where nothing's to gain
Apostles of doubt with no prophet
No guide to salvation again
 
As fish in the realms of the ocean
Lost in this sea of despair
While silver is lining their pockets
A Judas will always be near
 
                 chorus
There're fewer tomorrows than yesterdays
No promises written in stone
But Lord as I need you, you answer
And I know then I'm not so alone
Lord as I need you, you answer
I Know now I'm not so alone
 
First money then later comes power
'Tis the flaw in the nature of man
To take but a little's more noble
Than to scavenge for all that you can
 
I Firmly believe in a GOD
A creator of all, good and bad
Who's laid everything here at our feet
Yet we're endlessly making HIM sad
