The Little Dog Angel

The Little Dog Angel



High up in the courts of Heaven today

A little dog angel awaits

With the other angels he will not play

But he sits alone at the gates.

For I know my master will come, says he

And when he comes he’ll call for me.



The other angels pass him by

As they hurry towards the throne

And he watches them with a wistful eye

As he sits at the gates alone

But I know if I just wait patiently

That someday my master will call for me.



And his master, down on the Earth below

As he sits in his easy chair

Forgets sometimes and whispers low

To the dog who is not there

And the little dog angel cocks his ears

And dreams that his master’s voice he hears.



And when at last his master waits

Outside in the dark and cold

For the hand of death to open the door

That leads to these courts of gold

He will hear a sound through the gathering dark

A little dog angel’s bark.
