For life so disappointed my empty soul,
That I lost my lover,
Now my life's blood runs cold.

As I hear the voice of an angel,
And his wings of black to spread.
His voice, my heart did pull at his sounding.

That my knees did shake
I sit now listening,
To the mesmerizing voice of my angel.

That my soul began to overflow,
And I could feel the warmth
In my cheeks once more

Tears of joy fell down my cheeks,
So warm and comforting ,
They laid themselves to rest at my feet.

So now my darling angel,
We're will you go next,
To the hills in the south,

Or the mountains in the west.
Or you could stay with me,
By my side forever,

And lead me to my seat in heaven.
