Hand of the Father Lyrics

For 24 years I've lived this life
In 24 hours I'll leave this life
Powder flash
As the earth gave way
Crimson blooms
On my coat of gray
The light grows dark as I awake
Angels dance my soul to take
I hear them say

Take the hand of the Father
As he leads you to the land
Of no tomorrow
Take the hand of the Father
As he leads you to the land
Of no more sorrows

Mama I'll miss your tender care
Daddy I hope I'll see you there
I tried so hard to do what's right
The time has come
To give up this fight
Lord I hear your still small voice
In a childhood vow
I made my choice
I hear you say
