Angels Wish

This is probably one of my number one favorite songs right now (I have a couple, but this one's on the top at the moment). It's incredible. When you get a chance, check it out. It's off of the All Things New album by Steven Curtis Chapman. Click the song title to hear a clip.



[1 Peter 1:12]
Was God smiling
When He spoke the words
That made the world
And did He cry about the flood
What does God's voice sound like
When He sings, when He's angry
These are just a few things
That the angels have on me
[Chorus:]
Well, I can't fly
At least not yet
I've got no halo on my head
And I can't even start to picture Heaven's beauty
But I've been shown the Savior's love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things the angels long to look into
And I know things
The Angels only wish they know
I have seen the dark and desperate place
Where sin will take you
I've felt loneliness and shame
And I have watched the blinding of grace
Come breaking through with a sweetness
Only tasted by the forgiven and redeemed
And someday I'll sit down with my angel friends
Up in Heaven
They'll tell me about creation
And I'll tell them a story of grace

OK, I'll play with it tonight, but if it still doesn't work, you can check it out at www.stevencurtischapman.com. Scroll over "Media", then select... discography or something. ATN is the first album listed and they've got sound links.
