The Angels Rejoiced Last Night (Live) Lyrics

The Angels Rejoiced Last Night (Live) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)

A house not a home

Was the picture satan painted

For sweet little sister and me

 

Our daddy would frown

While mother was prayin'

His heart was so hardened

That he would not believe

 

In anger he'd swear

His voice cold and loud

His sundays were spent

Out with the gamblin' crowd

 

I've never seen my daddy

Inside a 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 on 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 pray

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
