lyrics

In the presence of my mother
47 angels did appear.
Said, "You are blessed, oh yes, your spirit's free, your mind should never fear.
Just open up your window, close your eyes and you will hear..."

So she closed her weary eyes,
Opened the windows of her crowded mind,
And she head The Holy Note as it echoed in her head,
Felt her spirit rising up, the angels lifter her from bed.


When I close my eyes, all I see is The Other Side.


They carried her across the ocean,
Flew her past her childhood home.
Said, "Whatever distance you may wander, whatever place your soul may roam,
Know we're always right behind you, know you never walk alone."

They flew her past the outer atmosphere,
Out past all the stars in this god's domain.
Said, "All you see is but an echo, all the cosmos sings His Name.
If you'd only stop mistrusting, you'd soon join in The Refrain,
Feel your body filled with light where it once felt only pain.
It was only pain, now look what it became,
As all her sickness fell away and she joined in The Refrain.


When I close my eyes, all I see is The Other Side.


In the presence of my mother
47 Angels did appear.
