lyrics

When words fail and angels come
And they fear for what we’ve done
When words fail and sun does fall
And they yearn to feel at all…
Like us

When words fail keys ring and soar
And the voice will sing no more…
And it is good

When words fail and sun is set
There’s no way we can forget…
And so at last
The day is past

When words fail and light is low
The still cries out from here below
And the stars light up the sky…
And He knows love

Angels fear what is to come
For they see when we are dumb
And undone love

When words fail and moments come
There’s a time and place to run…
Tomorrow

And the angels still unfold their wings…
And they shelter


When words fail and demons come
They will wail and struggle and fail

For angels yearn to love like man
They will shelter as they can
When we falter understand
God knows

When words fail and angels come
Keys be still the sun goes down
Then let heaven have its way…
On our bear heart
And our troubled slumber

Let the words and demons die
Know how soon the sun will rise
Angels answer to a stronger eye…
Of God

When words fail and it is past love
God have mercy on us
