The Angel Choir

Verse 1

I seem to hear an angel choir Down from their shining home; And in my heart their notes inspire Sweet anthems from the throne.

Chorus

Hark! o’er the vale sweet melodies That echo in my soul; Our great Redeemer’s holy praise As mighty thunders roll.

Verse 2

Upon the mount of holiness, We live in heaven’s view; And o’er the shaded valley come Their songs forever new.

Verse 3

Above, below, one family, A thousand chords of love; Now thrill my soul with melodies, They chant in praise above.

Verse 4

I catch the pure celestial strain That heaven wafts to me; And then my happy spirit sings, “Oh, glory, I am free!”

Verse 5

We echo back the sounds that float Through Eden’s balmy air; And heaven shouts to hear on earth The songs they’re singing there.
