Better Angels
Angry words and bitterness
Cause love to fade away
What happened to the dreams
And hopes that we shared yesterday?
Mystic chords of memory that stir within in our soul
Lead us to forgiveness so that we can be made whole
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
Hatred only breeds more hate
And darkness in our heart
May we find compassion in a world so torn apart
A symphony of what could be
Says this where we start
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
Let our better angels be our guide
Yes let our better angels walk beside
Can you catch us all?
'Cause we just about to fall
Rise up and find better angels in us all
Yes rise up it's time, oh it's time
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
And we will find a way
Cause love to fade away
What happened to the dreams
And hopes that we shared yesterday?
Mystic chords of memory that stir within in our soul
Lead us to forgiveness so that we can be made whole
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
Hatred only breeds more hate
And darkness in our heart
May we find compassion in a world so torn apart
A symphony of what could be
Says this where we start
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
Let our better angels be our guide
Yes let our better angels walk beside
Can you catch us all?
'Cause we just about to fall
Rise up and find better angels in us all
Yes rise up it's time, oh it's time
We are not enemies, there is no good in that
There are better angels that surround us all
And we will find a way through all our differences
Hear the better angels, listen to their call
And we will find a way
