1st Stanza
The angel of the Lord
Came down to earth one day
And He sat there in my room
As I began to pray
A smile poured on his lips
But the teardrops in His eyes
When I ask Him what was wrong
The angel did reply
CHORUS
There's a choir up in heaven
Singing country gospel song
And they're singing to the Master
Grand all offering all day long
And they never fail
To warm my heart
No matter where I go
Knowing God loves gospel music
As the angel told me so
2nd Stanza
I know that one fine day
When Jesus take me home
You'll see me in the Choir
Around the Father's throne
A smile poured on my lips
But no teardrops in my eyes
Giving thanks unto the Lord
In the sweet by and by....
