My poor heart was heavy, my poor heart was stone
Then I heard them, they were angels
And they were singing, you're not alone
There is a peace you've never known
I could hear trumpets, I could hear them blow
Then the angels summoned chariots
The angels told them, Swing, swing low
The angels told them, Swing, swing low
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy towards the light
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry him home tonight
If your heart is heavy, if your heart is stone
May you hear them, they are angels
They may be singing about a throne
About a peace in the never-known
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy towards the light
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry him home tonight
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy towards the light
Sweet gospel music
Carry this boy away from danger
Sweet gospel music
Carry him home tonight
