When Angels Cry (Acapella)

[Verse 1]
I was walking down the road that leads to hope
My soul’s in desperation, need to go
I see the glow but something’s wrong
Seem’s the light of love is gone
They’ve destroyed the place where children go to pray (oh)
Now I’m staring at the walls to find his place
Casting shadows on the world and I resist
Now the church must live within (live within)
We can build these walls again
But for now I pray for mercy on our souls
Oh

[Chorus]
Angels cry when innocence is shattered
And the love for your brother no longer matters
Now our faith is on the ground
The house of God is burning down
And we’re standing in the ashes of our shame
When angels cry
When angels cry

[Verse 2]
I’ll be the first to extend my hand to you (hand to you)
And forgiveness will begin to heal our wounds (oh)
It’s time to see this eye to eye (eye to eye)
Brown or yellow, black or white
From these burning embers we can rise again (we’ll rise again)

[Chorus]
Angels cry when innocence is shattered
And the love for your brother no longer matters
Now our faith is on the ground
The house of God is burning down
And we’re standing in the ashes of our shame (oh, oh)
When angels cry (ooh)
(ooh)

[Outro]
Can we try to heal the pain when angels pain
Cause only love can lead to change
Can we try to heal the pain when angels cry (try to heal the pain when angels cry)
Can we try
When angels cry
Oh, oh, oh
Ooh
