Marty O’Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra - I Heard The Angels
One day while I was walking along,
I could heard an angel singing,
I heard a voice but saw no one,
I could hear an angel singing...
"What you reckon?" he said to me,
I could hear an angel singing.
I'm too young to die,
and too old to pray,
I could hear an angel singing,
and they say-
"One morning soon child,
One morning soon child" They say
"One morning soon child"
I could hear an angel singing...
Went down to the valley and I began to pray,
I can hear an angel singing,
my sins they were forgiven and my soul set free,
I could hear an angel singing, Lord
And they say
"One morning soon child,
One morning soon child" They say
"One morning soon child"
I could hear an angel singing...
Went down to the valley and i began to pray,
I can hear an angel singing,
I heard a voice but I saw no one,
I can hear an angel singing...

More raw and compelling than his next album, Dark Was The Yearling. Gothic Americana with a touch of gospel. Fans of Sixteen Horsepower will enjoy this. Lute FP
