If ever I hear an angel sing,
If ever God grants me wings of mine own,
To join the angelic choirs above,
In the Father, Son, and Spirit’s home,
It is well known to me how heaven will sound,
When the angels look upward and sing their praise;
I can secern out of the millions, one angelic voice
Flowing as the wind in the most ancient summer days.
The sinners will never forget the sound;
They drop their heads and lament with tears.
For one moment to hear this angel’s song,
Is to lighten life’s burdens and shatter all fears.
I have heard the voice that God has given to angels,
Through you, a rarity of earth-sent herald,
Filling all ears with righteous elysium,
Lifted up in Holy, devout regard.
Never in this life have I heard a chime
So serenely balanced, so moving to my soul;
My earthly mind would never have imagined,
A voice holding such power with such calm control.
I know I have never climbed Jacob’s ladder,
Never seen Michael contend with the devil,
But I have heard you sing with the voice of an angel,
And every time I do it makes my heart stop still.
Life can give us some pretty hard times,
God gives us what it takes to overcome and we will,
Never in my life though has my heart felt such grace,
As when I hear you sing with the voice of an angel.

Such a calming thing to have that in your life. We all have some sort, of angel with us.....be it, never hearing, or always, with us in certain ways. Good write. |
