ANGEL TEARS AT CHRISTMAS God sends His lovely angel tears To us this time of year They float and tumble through the air And send out Christmas cheer. Each flake He sends is special From out of wintry skies They paint a pretty picture To soothe our weary eyes. They glide and twirl as if to say The season's just begun And gently beckon to us To join in merry fun. Like sparkling gems, they fill the sky And quietly take up space They seem to flow in harmony Attired in angel lace. At Christmas time when all is calm We look to things above For angel tears and Christmas To fill our lives with love. A sacred star shines in the East As Christmas day draws near A manger scene, a Holy night And gentle angel tears. The children gather 'round the tree To hear the Christmas story As angel tears fall to the earth To trim the earth in glory. His precious tears drift to the earth So everyone will know A child was born in Bethlehem It's written in the snow. So if you get to feeling blue And plagued by worldly fears Just look outside your window God's shedding angel tears. © 2001 Marilyn Ferguson
