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 the better angels be our guide

Yes there are 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
