A
Better - Place to Be
by Allen
Christian Jr.
In an earth of dues and a financial well run dry
Everyone in prayer for another day's end and tears no longer to cry
Looking forward to feeling life again and lifting my head up high
The world cries out for a God's send of beauty, truth, and love
This world needs someone to help contain this darkness above
On one single day; a night of delight
There was an angel of music who lifted hearts and spirits up high
The music rained over the crowd and helped everyone to grow
Worries were few, debts were distant, and the shadows of the crowd
focused on vocal gold
To see the world in a different view and to remember a time content
When hugs were many, kisses not few, and life; time well spent
This angel of music gave more than she knew
She was a blessing from above, a rarity in view
I've never seen such beauty in words nor eyes so pure and true
That cried out to me as the Sermon on the Mount
And saved my heart from this financial blue
If only she could know how much better it is to be
Now that I have heard her sound
Like liquid health on this broken tree
She has given more than the earth could possibly tell
More than the candle's view
She is the angel of music from Heaven above
The Church that saved me too
