‘Jesus Sent The Angels’
Jesus sent the angels down for you
To come and take you home
On eagles wings they carried you
To our Heavenly Father and to your son
He sent the Holy Spirit
To fill your family and friends with peace
With the message and the promise
That He’ll restore and renew you to eternal life dear Keith.
He sent the angels down for you
To whisper softly in your ear
Proclaiming, He is the way, the truth, & the life
You do not need to fear
He sent the angels down for you
And on eagles wings they carried you home
As He waited for you at Heavens gate
With wide open arms
I’m sure He took you in His embrace
Exclaiming, good work my faithful son
Rest In Peace my loving child
For all your work is done.
