Song Description

I have often tried to imagine what it must have been like for the shepherds to see and hear the angels as they proclaimed the Messiah's birth to them;--to experience the flight of angels.

Lyrics

FLIGHT OF THE ANGELS
Words and Music by Mark S. Crocker

VS.1 In the cold of night,
I hear the rush of angels wings;
Looking in the sky
I see the form of heavenly
beings
And what it brings:

Light--such blinding light,
creating day from total dark.
Sounds of thunderous praise,
such heavenly sounds that fill
my heart,
They fill my heart.

CHORUS Why did they come to me?
What could their message be?

VS. 2 "Born to you this night in
Bethlehem is Christ, your King.
Go and find a babe
Who wears no crown,
Who has no ring;
For Him we sing.

BRIDGE The Lord your God has prepared a
star in the sky
To show you the place where He
lies.
Just listen for His precious
cries.
Go and kneel before the
Messiah".

VS.3 Angels from the realms of glory
--such mysterious flight,
Meeting shepherds at a manger
throne that glows so bright
This holy night.

Hovering over Jesus' tiny form,
They sing His praise.
Mingling with the songs of
mother Mary in this place,
Sacred place.

Angel's flight on this night,
For the author of grace.
