	A song of peace written about the events of September 11, 2001 by female vocalist-songwriter Leslie Clark. Singing with her signature wash of warm harmonies, Clark's imagery of angels weaves a tapestry of light and truth. Chances are if you picked up a weapon after the terrorist attacks of 9-11, you will put it down after hearing this song.

	Story Behind the Song On the Sunday after September 11, I saw in my mind images of the sky over the World Trade Center Towers and the Pentagon filling with angels who led all those legions of people up to Heaven. Then, this entire song came very quickly to me, in a rush of lyrics and music. My husband Steve and I went to Seattle to record the song shortly after that. We felt so strongly that our government might go in the direction of war in response to the attacks that we posted full audio files of the song on our website in the hope that somehow its message would add to all the efforts for peace. Now that the war drums are beating, we are posting the song (which has been posted on our website for over a year) on MP3.com so it can reach a larger audience. Lyrics The Sky Was Full of Angels by Leslie Clark© Rama, Krishna, Jesus, Muhammad, Buddha, Zorastra, Jehovah One day this past September Some angry men whose hearts had died Toppled three of our great buildings And took the lives of thousands trapped inside We stood in tearful contemplation And vowed someone would have to pay The call to war began to fill our nation I prayed that God would show us all the way And the sky was full of angels All the day and night Who led those countless numbers Up the stairway to the Light We saw their radiant figures Lead our loved ones, hand in hand We knew that they were finally Going to reach the Promised Land And the world cried out for safety And the world cried out for love And the world cried out for answers But was met with only silence from above So we stood in quiet contemplation And suddenly the path was clear to all We wouldn't see a final end to fear in the world Until we'd seen the final teardrop fall And the sky was full of angels All the day and night Who led those countless numbers Up the stairway to the Light We saw their radiant figures Lead our loved ones, hand in hand We knew that they were finally Going to reach the Promised Land So we put down our weapons of destruction And we picked up our instruments of love And we marched off to fight the war together And we felt a warm approval from above And the world was one in their intention It took some time to turn the tide Unselfish love became the intervention And everyone became transformed inside And the sky was full of angels All the day and night Who led those countless numbers Up the stairway to the Light We saw their radiant figures Lead our loved ones, hand in hand We knew that we were finally Going to reach the Promised Land.
