Angels

The touch of His hand will let me know
He takes me in and lets me go
If not for love, who would believe?
Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done,
in you and me
We're lifted up by angels higher than the world
Strong enough to leave it
Bound to learn the secrets angels never heard

Chorus
Close enough to heaven
Far above the rain
Darkness cannot reach us
Let the angels teach us
Only love remains
We're lifted, us by angels

To understand, yet never say
How every plan would fade away
If  not for love, where would we be?
Ashes to dust, water to ruse, eternally
We're lifted up by angels, higher than the world
Strong enough to leave it
Bound to learn the secrets angels never heard

Chorus
Given wings to fly, leave the night behind
Trust the night to find us even as we rise
We're lifted up by angels
