There's not a cloud in the sky today
look upwards if you may
though your eyes only see halfway
try imagining heaven
whisper a prayer for all you do
for what you don't know or think untrue
it stands to reason that the angels are blue
from what's above us, that's a given

All of the sadness that pierces your heart
sooner or later will help you to part
with comfortable things that only enslave you
and keep you from the divine
the gladness you seek will come raining down
it will pour out from the crown
of the one God eternal
who created you to shine

The vast expanse of air declares
the infinite love that we'll share
in storied clouds that swirling form
or lightning as it tears
in crimson sun displays at dusk
on brightest stars that shine each night
we only see heaven halfway
but I trust we'll be alright

All of the madness that weighs on my heart
sooner or later must help me to part
with all of those things that damage my spirit
and keep me from being free
the gladness I seek will come raining down
it will pour out from the crown
of the one true God above
who loves us  eternally.
