At last we meet again, dear God 

Hear the angels sing 

The funerals are nicer when we know you're there 

When the angels sing 

Sometimes 

I try so hard 

To understand 

The things you do 

I like to question you 

When it all comes down 

Hear the angels sing 

Stand up strong 

Feel the pain 

When the angels sing 

Love 

And death 

Don't mean a thing 

Till the angels sing 



The prisoners pray when they're on to death row 

When the angels sing 

The junky 

Cries for love but it's all run out 

When the angels sing 

The sins 

Of the world 

And it's cold on the streets 

And you're all alone 

And the tears 

They start to fall 

When it all comes down 

Hear the angels sing 



Stand up strong 

Feel the pain 

When the angels sing 

Love 

And death 

Don't mean a thing 

Till the angels sing 

Little 

By little 

Day by day 

I watch the children play 

Cause life 

And death 

Don't mean a thing 

Till the angels sing 



When the angel of death comes to looking for me 

Hear the angels sing 

I hope I was everything I was supposed to be 

When the angels sing 

There's gotta be a heaven 

Cause I've already done 

My time in hell 

And a little 

Baby's born when it all comes down 

Hear the angels sing 



Stand up strong 

Feel the pain 

When the angels sing 

Love 

And death 

Don't mean a thing 

Till the angels sing 

Little 

By little 

Day by day 

I watch the children play 

Cause life 

And death 

Don't mean a thing 

Till the angels sing
