Poems (Hoffman)/Redemption Song
REDEMPTION SONG
O the angels are singing because, because,Christ beareth my burden to-day!From the tomb in my heart they are coming to rollThe stone of my sorrow away, away, The angels will roll it away!
O the angels are singing for joy, for joy,When Christ took my burden of clay,When He stooped to lift what was bearing me down,The stone of my sorrow, to-day, to-day, The angels will roll it away!
