Today The Angels Cried

Today the angels cried for the loss of a little boy
They shed a tear as the doctor's pronounced him brain dead
As his mother held his lifeless body in her arms for the last time
Today the angels cried

Today the angels cried as his parents shared the news with friends and family
His older sisters clinging to their mommy's leg
The doctor's shaking their heads saying I wish we could have done more
Today the angels cried

Today the angels cried as God craddles the scared little boy in his arms
Saying it's ok I'm going to take care of you my son
We will watch your Mommy and Daddy from up here
Today the angels cried

Today the angels cried as little Ernie waves goodbye from heaven
Knowing one day he will see is Mommy and Daddy again
Crying out for one last look before receiving his wings
Today the angels cried
