The Night the Children Sang

On the morning of Sunday 16 January 2005, before I awoke, I dreamed that I was in a family setting teaching a lesson as in a Family Home Evening. While I shared my lesson, the children started singing, and I thought that soon angels joined with them in singing of the love of the Father in Heaven. When I awoke I tried to write down the song they were singing. I translate it something like this:

We love our Father, he loves us forever. No sadness or danger will make us afraid. Alelluia the children were singing With angels around them arrayed.

Or

We have a father who loves us forever. No sadness or danger will make us afraid. Aleluia, the the little children were singing With angels around them arrayed.

A Song

One night I lay asleep; I dreamed a dream most heavenly. Around me my children gathered, glowing with love. And as I taught them, in answer came a melody, And soon they were joined by the angels above.

A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. The little children were singing with love. A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. A song to their Father above.

We have a Father who loves us forever. No sadness or danger will make us afraid. For we are his children; we love Him forever, in warm light He holds us; our strong house He made.

Alleluia. The little children were singing. Raising a song to their Father above. Alleluia. Angelic answers were ringing. A witness of heavenly love.
