"I Hang My Halo On Your Wing"

“I Hang My Halo On Your Wing”

[Written in 1999 - dedicated to St-Michael, Archangel]

Freed all the Love I held inside
All that You’d ever given me
Used it to fill a well, to share
With those who died of thirst, out there

Many were found, by this well’s side
Curled up and dying, cursing You
Most had refused to drink Its Core
Too few believed a Love as pure

(Chorus)
I hang my halo on Your wing
You, Gentle Pilot of my dreams
For, I’ve grown tired, understand...
Of this here species, they call ‘Man’
I hang my halo on Your wing
Please fly me Home, before I die
Heart on the rocks, I wave a flag
I’ve given up, I kiss the sky

This World cries out, ohhh.... Can’t you hear?
And see where I’ve buried Its tears?
My heart has swelled with such despair
It’s so cold here, I gasp for air

I gave up all that was in me,
Hoping Your love could change this world
They killed another child today...
Cover my eyes... Fly me away

(Bridge)
Fly me where there’s no rhyme for crime
Where Winter’s not one of the Seasons
Heart-deep in snow, I hurt so bad
Sent you a Flare... The last I had

(Chorus)
I hang my halo on Your wing
You, Gentle Pilot of my dreams
For, I’ve grown tired, understand...
Of this here species, they called ‘Man’
I hang my halo on Your wing
Please fly me Home, before I die
Heart on the rocks, I wave a flag
I’ve given up, I kiss the sky

I’ll bring Your Love up to the sky
And free It yet again, once there
I’ll let It rain upon the Earth
Just so the birds will hear Its air

Someday, the birds of every tree
Will sing It out, in harmony
This world will hear a Symphony
That’ll bring each Soul down on one knee

(Chorus)
I hang my halo on Your wing
You, Gentle Pilot of my dreams
(I love you senseless)
For, I’ve grown tired, understand...
Of this here species, they call ‘Man’
I hang my halo on Your wing
Please fly me Home, before I die
Heart on the rocks, I wave a flag
I’ve given up, I kiss the sky

This world is waiting now - Full thrust!!
This Craft must spread some Angel’s Dust
