[Nicolette Larson - Angels Rejoiced lyrics]
A house not a home was
A picture Satan painted
For sweet little sister and me
Our Daddy would frown while Mother
Was praying his heart was so hardened that
He would not believe
In anger he'd swear, his voice cold and loud
His Sundays were spent down
With the gambling crowd
I've never seen my Daddy inside
The house of God
For Satan held his hand down the
Path of sin he trod
Not long ago our circle was broken
When God called our Mother one night
In a voice sweet and low
Her last words were spoken
Asking our Daddy to raise her children right
The angels rejoiced in Heaven last night
I heard my Daddy praying, "Dear God
Make it right"
He was smiling and singing with
Tears in his eyes
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night
A picture Satan painted
For sweet little sister and me
Our Daddy would frown while Mother
Was praying his heart was so hardened that
He would not believe
In anger he'd swear, his voice cold and loud
His Sundays were spent down
With the gambling crowd
I've never seen my Daddy inside
The house of God
For Satan held his hand down the
Path of sin he trod
Not long ago our circle was broken
When God called our Mother one night
In a voice sweet and low
Her last words were spoken
Asking our Daddy to raise her children right
The angels rejoiced in Heaven last night
I heard my Daddy praying, "Dear God
Make it right"
He was smiling and singing with
Tears in his eyes
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night
While mother with the angels
Rejoiced last night
