When Angels Cry - Take 6

I was walking down the road that leads to hope

My soul’s in desperation, need to go

I see the glow but something’s wrong

Seem’s the light of love is gone

They’ve destroyed the place where children go to pray

Now I’m staring at the walls to find his place (ooh)

Casting shadows on the world and I resist (ooh)

Now the church must live within (live within)

We can build these walls again

But for now I pray for mercy on our souls

Angels cry when innocence is shattered (ooh)

And the love for your brother no longer matters (ooh)

Now our faith is on the ground (ooh)

The house of God is burning down

And we’re standing in the ashes of our shame (ooh)

When angels cry (when angels cry)

I’ll be the first to extend my hand to you (hand to you)

And forgiveness will begin to heal our wounds (oh, yeah)

It’s time to see this eye to eye (eye to eye)

Brown or yellow, black or white (ooh)

From these burning embers we can rise again, oh (we'll rise again)

Angels cry when innocence is shattered (ooh)

And the love for your brother no longer matters (ooh)

Now our faith is on the ground

The house of God is burning down

And we’re standing in the ashes of our shame (oh, oh)

When angels cry (ooh)

Oooh (ooh)

Hey

Can we try to heal the pain when angels cry

Cause only love can lead to change

Can we try to heal the pain when angels cry (try to heal the pain when angels

cry)

Can we try (oh)

Can we try

When angels cry

Oh, oh, oh

Ooh
