“An Angel Came Last Night”
(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)
(Verse 1)
Last night an angel visited me while I was asleep in bed,
The angel gently touched my face, then softly kissed my head.
He whispered, Child, don’t be afraid, I was sent from Father above,
To tell you now, get your house in order, soon He’ll call you home with love.
(Chorus)
An angel came last night, with Heaven in his eyes,
He said my time is near, no need for tears or cries.
A journey waits for me, where pain will be no more,
An angel came last night to guide me to that shore.
(Verse 2)
He said, Your battles are over, your struggles soon will cease,
The Father’s arms are waiting, He’s prepared a place of peace.
Your name is written in glory, your crown already won,
The gates of pearl are open wide, your race on earth is done.
(Chorus)
An angel came last night, with Heaven in his eyes,
He said my time is near, no need for tears or cries.
A journey waits for me, where joy will overflow,
An angel came last night to tell me it’s time to go.
(Bridge)
Don’t weep for me when I am gone, my soul will finally fly,
I’ll walk the streets of golden light, with Jesus by my side.
I’ll see the loved ones gone before, I’ll hear the angels sing,
At the throne of the Almighty God, I’ll lay down everything.
(Final Chorus / Outro)
An angel came last night, his message clear and true,
He said the Father’s calling me, but I’ll be watching you.
So live your life in faith, let His holy will be done,
Until we meet in Heaven’s light, beneath the rising Son.
