Serenaded By Angels

She went to sleep one night
Never to awake again
But everything was all right
Between her and Him
She awoke in Heaven's courtyard
Free from pain within
The angels gathered around her
And took her by the hand

Serenaded by angels, up to the throne
Serenaded by angels, finally at home
Surrounded by praises, to the King
Welcome to Paradise, the angels did sing

Now I close my eyes at night
And try to imagine
That city of brilliant light
Waiting for me
But my mind cannot conceive
So I'll continue to dream
Till I'm transported there
Then I will be

Serenaded by angels, up to the throne
Serenaded by angels, finally at home
Surrounded by praises, to the King
Welcome to Paradise, the angels did sing

Welcome to Paradise, the angels did sing
