Lyrics
Another precious soul has gone
The blue skies have turned gray
I feel the sorrow till the dawn
I’ll be on my way
Another precious soul has gone
Another war has been won
Another world has been shattered
Another loved one is gone
Another angel is gone
Her wings will fly high tonight
This world will remember you
This world will remember you
God took her home
Another precious soul has gone
The birds have all stopped singing
No more happiness, no more joy
We will not stop praying
Another precious soul has gone
Now lost in death’s embrace
Another lonely church bells’ ring
Will sing Amazing Grace
Another angel is gone
Her wings will fly high tonight
This world will remember you
This world will remember you
God took her home
You gave your guiding hand
Gave us hope to make a stand
Don’t leave us here
Don’t leave us here
You taught us what was wrong and right
Taught us to live in the light
We need you here
We need you here
Another angel is gone
Her wings will fly high tonight
This world will remember you
This world will remember you
This world will remember you
God took her home
This world will remember you
This world will remember you
God took her home
