The day the angel cried.....
The angel shed a tear that day
as he flew over this dismay
he heard and watched his children
and his heart cried out in pain.
But from the crash the smoke and ash
grew a power both great and rare
it touched the souls of young and old
gratified and gathered them in prayer
Oh angel you must cast your blows
and death inflicted your stings
but we have faith in god above
and the angel spread his wings
He flew high in the sky
and called to all who'd hear
unite with me in firm resolve
we will not live in fear
We will not rest, we will not cease
and terror will not reign
we vow to you now that your gone beyond
you did not die in vain
The sun will rise another day
the sun will fall once more
and time will not abide
but rest assured we will not forget
the day the angel cried......
