Listening to the angels
My sister was swimming that long ago day
our family had ventured out so we could play
The water was deep and the whirlpool was stong
as it grabbed her fast, it pulled her along
She struggled to fight to raise to the top
finally gave up, the whirling water wouldn't stop
peace came upon her as down she fell
what was that sound, as first she couldn't tell
It was so beautiful, she felt full of joy and love
as she realized the music came from above
a choir of angels singing a song
she was in their care but not for very long
She suddenly felt her body begin to rise
as the boy name Jim reached her up toward the sky
yes, she was returned to her family that day
she knew she would live as she heard them all pray
asking her Heavenly Father to keep her safe in His arms
so He sent down His angels to protect her from harm
She will never forget the angles voices that day
singing Gods praises and telling her, "go home and play"
This is a true story of the day my sister Ines drowned while we were swimming in a canal near Bakersfield, Ca. She told us after being rescued that she heard the most beautiful singing and it gave her complete peace and took her fear away. She looked down and saw her own body lying at the bottom of the canal. She has told me she does not fear death because of that experience, knowing the angels will be waiting to take her to her heavenly home.
