One day an angel came down from Heaven
An envoy of our God above
From this great world to choose a token
That all His throng in Heaven would love
CHORUS:
We buried her beneath the willows
With heads bowed low, we walked away
God needed her to sing in Heaven
We’ll meet again on that bright day
A soft song fell within His hearing
He picked our girl, her soul, her voice
Today our partner sings in Heaven
God praised the angel for his choice
REPEAT CHORUS
