The Angel Song

God gave me this song in 2011, I was living with my mom at the time. The pain of the loss of a loved one, loneliness, depression set in and life was dark. God is always with us even in the dark. I wrote this for my first book, ‘Sing Sarah Sing.’ I want to share it with you today. God never lies, He never changes, and He never leaves us…

We will face many battles in life and loss and hurt will always be there…but there will also be joy and happiness and new life and new opportunities for good…it rains on the just and the unjust…

My hope is not in things or people…My hope is in the Lord! I will trust Him, no matter what and one day I will be going home on Angel’s wings….

When life gets too hard to bear…than Sing child, sing!!

If you can’t sing, hum, and if that doesn’t work, then turn the radio on and turn it up all the way and let the music lift you higher and higher…

Music has healing…You are going to make it!! 

Though times are hard

I’m by your side

Your tears I hold within my hand

No matter what I’ll hold you close

Look to the one who understands.

Though fear may come, and tears may fall

Be still and know, that I am God

Let perfect peace restore your heart

And know my love we’ll never part

Chorus:

I walked the road of trials and torment

I sat with those who love me still

But on the cross

I felt the suffering of all the ones who love me most.

The birds they sing a nightly chorus

Of joy and peace to all they bring

So lift your voice and head toward heaven

And learn their song, their song and sing.

He gives me peace, He gives me life, the angels sing be glorified

Praise to the King our mighty King

We’re going home on angels wings.

When in the stillness now at midnight

I see the star of love so bright

I’ll never ever doubt my Savior

For He will lead me through the night

And on the breeze I hear Him whisper…

Press on my child and do not weep

For at the dawn you’ll have your answer

So close your eyes and go to sleep.

Chorus:

I walked the road of trials and torment

I sat with those who love me still

But on the cross

I felt the suffering of all the ones who loved me most.

The birds they sing a nightly chorus

Of joy and peace to all they bring

So lift your voice and head toward heaven

And learn their song, their song and sing.

He gives me peace, He gives me life, the angels sing be glorified

Praise to the King our mighty King

We’re going home on angels wings.

I wake at dawn and have my answer

His peace I sing to all who wait

And then He gives me sweet assurance

I’ll never, ever be alone

These souls I bring to heaven’s harvest

They are the ones who overcome

And now my love

You have your answer

Your journey’s only just begun!
