Heavenly places

when I'm down and out

When I feel down and out

I look far beyond the clouds

I close my eyes and let love in

Knowing I have friends in heavenly places

Where the angels sing

With streets of gold and choirs too!

Heaven must have quite a view

When I feel down and out

I close my eyes and let love in

Knowing one day I’ll walk with heavens king

Many things to do

Many lessons to learn before it’s my turn

I smile and close my eyes and let love in

Knowing I have friends in heavenly places

Where the angels sing

When my heart is heavy, my spirit weary

When I can’t see life’s path clearly

I smile and close my eyes and let love in

Knowing I have friends in heavenly places

Where the angels sing

I must stay strong and carry on,

remember them and sing their song

I smile and close my eyes and let love in

Knowing I have friends in heavenly places

Where the angels sing
