Wednesday's Woe - In the Arms of an Angel






I can't seem to get this song out of my mind after listening to it a few days ago; it is haunting and moving. As it so moved me in my grief, may it touch your grieving heart as well...








Angel

~Sarah McLachlan



Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance,
For a break that would make it okay

There's always some reason

To feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction-

Oh...beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins

Let me be empty
, oh
And weightless, and maybe

I'll find some peace tonight...



In the arms of the angel,

Fly away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie


You're in the arms of the angel--
May you find some comfort here...



So tired of the straight line,

And everywhere you turn

There's vultures and thieves at your back--

And the storm keeps on twisting,

You keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack


It don't make no difference,
Escape one last time

It's easier to believe in this sweet madness,

Oh...this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees



In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here



From this dark, cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel,

May you find some comfort here.



You're In the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here.

Monday's Mourning Ministry - Somewhere Out There / Her Child-Like Grin




Monday's Mourning Ministry


Somewhere Out There


Her Child-Like Grin




God, please hold my baby girl tonight.

Give all my love to her, Mommy's delight,

her eyes beaming into Your gentle face.

Some day I'll get there with my own embrace...




Thank You for restoring her child-like heart,

For we're one-in-spirit though now apart.

Thank You for reminding me, "She's alive!"

She's safe in Your arms where her spirit can thrive.




The veil between us seems billowy thin

As her spirit slides through with her child-like grin!

Somewhere Out There


An American Tail



Somewhere out there

Beneath the pale moonlight,

Someone's thinking of me

And loving me tonight.



Somewhere out there

Someone's saying a prayer

That we'll find one another

In that big somewhere out there.



And even though I know

How very far apart we are,

It helps to think we might be

wishing on the same bright star.



And when the night wind starts

To sing a lonesome lullaby,

It helps to think we're sleeping

Underneath the same big sky.



Somewhere out there

If love can see us through,

Then we'll be together,

Somewhere out there

Out where dreams come true.

Thank you to Becky from http://weepyseeds.blogspot.com/ ~ another grieving mother, for the inspiration of this song from her blog. May God bless you Becky, as you grieve your precious daughter, Jae Lynn.
