My poor heart was heavy, my poor heart was stone
ch /ch /ch
Then I heard them - they were angels, and they were singing:
ch /ch /ch
'You're not alone',
ch /ch /ch
'There is a peace you've never known'
ch /ch /ch
I could hear trumpets, I could hear them blow
ch /ch /ch
Then the angels summoned chariots, the angels told them
ch /ch /ch
'Swing, swing low'
ch /ch /ch
The angels told them 'swing, swing low'

If your heart is heavy, if your heart is stone,
ch /ch /ch
May you hear them - they are angels, they may be singing
ch /ch /ch
About a throne,
ch /ch /ch
About a peace, in the never-known
