"THE DAY THEY BECAME ANGELS" - Words and music by Jonathan Cain of Journey

NEW SONG BY JONATHAN CAIN IN HONOR OF OUR LADY OF THE ANGELS SCHOOL

The day they became angels
They left us wondering why
Young souls joined Gods departed
Leaving no time for good-bye
All thats left are memoriesof
innocence and childhood dreams
As survivors we chose to love beyond
our pain
While the whole world stopped to watch
our tears
With faith we heal through the years
Somehow a cloud of sadness still
remains

The day they became angels
Life seemed so unfair
Left us feeling helpless
As we offered up our prayers
Come together we must let them
knowwhat happened fifty years ago
Will never be forgotten in our hearts
We have carried on and lived our lives

The reason why we all survived
Gives us purpose to know who we are

Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine
Et lux perpetua luceat eis
Requiescant in pace AmenRequiescant
in pace Amen
The day they became angels
