Angels' Wings Lyrics Randy Stonehill
I'm gonna lay myself down in that sweet rolling river
'Til the cool flowing water has washed me clean
And when I rise in the sunlight
I will gaze ever homeward
For there'll be no need to look back again
Chorus:
And angels' wings were fluttering over my shoulders
And they lifted me up above all this darkness and dust
And my heart was on fire when I heard the song they were singing
They sang don't you remember you were born to be free just like us
And I dreamed of a meadow filled with beautiful flowers
And silvery white horses I was watching them run
And all of my loved ones who had gone home before me
They were there by my side
We were there, everyone
[repeat Chorus]
Now the devil was waiting standing there at the crossroads
And he smiled like he knew me and I hung my head down
Then a white dove descended, shining bright as the morning
And though Satan was shouting, he could not make a sound
I have struggled so long on this strange pilgrim journey
And the wild wind has cut me as the sands of time blow
But it all will be worth it when I kneel before Jesus
And His face has been carved in the stone of my soul
[repeat Chorus]
Don't you remember you born to be free just like us
Don't you remember
Don't you remember
Remember
