Grant me the peace
of a gravestone angel
When the storm clouds
roam across a mountainside
Grant me the grace
of the angel's wings
as troubled winds
begin to rise
How many times have I fallen
How many times will my spirit stand
Grant me the peace
of a gravestone angel
When tears run
from my eyes
Grant me the grace
of the angel's wings
When my voice
begins to cry
How many times have I fallen
How many times will my spirit stand
Grant me the peace
of a gravestone angel
Weathered but true
all the days of my life
Grant me the grace
of the angel's wings
'Til Heaven's view
the Glory of His Light
("Thomas Wolfe's Angel," now at Oakdale Cemetery in Hendersonville, North Carolina. )
This is a lovely presentation, both for the heart and the eyes. The writing has a real message and the art is beautiful. It all intertwines to spell the word, "special."
