Story Behind the Song
Biblical imagery and Godly meaning of the losses and sacrifices of 9-11, in a sweet, gentle, comforting, yet powerful (and lively) love song to our lost loves and to New York City.
Lyrics
ANGELS RISIN' (OVER NEW YORK CITY)
September mornin', I walked along
Under skies so pure like the Lord's sweet song.
A pillar of smoke appeared to me,
Risin' high over New York City.
Those towers cracked and the fires did burn.
For those poor people my heart did yearn.
To escape the flames, some folks jumped out.
But they didn't fall down, they were carried up.
chorus:
Angels risin' to Heaven above.
They carry our tears, they carry our love.
Angels risin' in the Land of the Free.
Angels risin' over New York City.
I know a man, he wore 70 pounds
Up a hundred flights, helpin' people down.
When the steel slid down, he was carried up
Just like Elijah, in his chariot.
I know a man, he worked so high.
He made them proud, his kids and wife.
When the towers fell, he was carried up.
Now he guides their hearts with God above.
(chorus)
That sky so perfect, so blue, so pure,
God's open window to view His world.
He was so sad for our lost loves,
He made that pillar of smoke their ladder up.
Now evil always will try its hand.
But live or die, the good shall win.
And those who die are carried up
To live forever in God's great love.
chorus:
Angels risin' to Heaven above.
They send us strength, they send us love.
Angels risin' for you and me.
Angels risin' over New York City.
