about

When people ask me about this song, they often say "that Angel Song'"
Here it is, "that Angel Song".

lyrics

Come ye slumbering angels
rise up
and lift your shining faces
unto the world
cast off these calloused cloaks
and let your golden wings unfold
Open wide your heart’s eyes
and feel what is revealed
shine a light on all you meet
to illuminate their dignity and worth
till the sweet milk of compassion is raining down on earth

Heal the hurt of the wounded
shoulder the grief of all who mourn
comfort the dying
ease the way for that which is being born
love boldly with the saints,
sing brightly with the messengers of dawn
Laugh with the children
Till the darkest sky is brightened by their mirth
and the sweet milk of compassion is raining down on earth

Hi-yee, hi-yee, hi yee, hi-yee-ee

Needlessly you have roamed
Only to learn
What you always have known

Come ye slumbering angels
Rise up and take your places in a fearless sky
Gaze upon this ocean of sorrow
With clear and loving eyes
Dive deep into it’s waters
to once again with it’s clouds arise
and shower blessings on each and every path
till the sweet milk of compassion is raining down on earth
till the sweet milk of compassion
is raining
here on earth

Wanting to add colour and texture to the story-telling, he has long engaged a fabulous floating line up of exceptional musicians in his collective "Miracle Band X" ... more
