Let Her Fly

There's a wreath on the door, she don't live here no more
As of today, she flew home
And we've all gathered here in sorrow and tears
It won't be the same with her gone

There's a place on the hill that's peaceful and still
Where she'll sleep beside daddy again
The old family tree is shedding its leaves
But we'll all meet in heaven again

Oh, she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly
She's gone home to glory, to her home in the sky
When God sees her coming, heaven's choir will smile
And sing, "Oh, she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly
Oh, she's an angel, let her fly"

She used to rock me when I was a child
Sing "Rock of ages" and "In the sweet by and by"
Her life wasn't easy, oh, but how hard she tried
You know she's an angel, Lord, so let her fly

Oh, she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly
She's gone home to glory, to her home in the sky
When God sees her coming, heaven's choir will smile
And sing, "Oh she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly
Oh, she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly"
Oh, she's an angel, let her fly
