Angel Child (Ode to Celine Oosthuisen)
Tears are falling from the sky
as an angel sits and cry
For the pain of a mother that will never ease
Because of her child,
that’s been lost for days
By a river, the angel sings
as she opens her untainted wings
In a grave not even deep
a little girl is sound asleep
CHORUS:
In our Father’s hands she will be
Up in heaven, safe and free
Heavenly Father, send them Your peace
for the pain that will never ease
For she’s and angel child
May she rest in peace
Back at home an uncle weeps
Old grandma never sleeps
Her sister calls out her name
She will never be the same
Family searching day and night
found her body by the light
Her lifeless face full of fear,
for she knew death was near
CHORUS
Cousins drowning in their tears
Her memory will stay for years
As the angel closes her wings
the girl in heaven sings
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
That’s where the angel waits
At heaven’s gate
