Lyrics One More Angel In Heaven - Andrew Lloyd Webber feat. Riggs O'Hara, Gordon Waller, Alex McAvoy & "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" 1973 London Cast

Father, we've somethin' to tell you
A story of our time
The tragic but inspirin' tale
Of manhood in its prime
You know you had a dozen sons
Well, now that's not quite true
But feel no sorrow, do not grieve
He would not want you to

There's one more angel in Heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Joseph, we'll never forget you
It's tough, but we're gonna get by
There's one less place at our table
There's one more tear in my eye
But, Joseph, the things that you stood for
Like love and peace, never die

Joseph died as he wished to
He answered duty's call
He single-handed foaled the beast
That would have killed us all
His blood-stained coat, his tribute to
His final sacrifice
His body may be past its peak
But his soul's in Paradise

There is one more angel in Heaven
There is one more star in the sky
Joseph, we'll never forget you
It's tough, but we're gonna get by
There is one less place at our table
There is one more tear in my eye
But, Joseph, the things that you stood for
Like truth and light, never die

When I think of his last great battle
A lump comes to my throat
It takes a man who knows not fear
To wrestle with a goat
Carve his name with pride and courage
Let no tear be shed
If he had not laid down his life
We all would now be dead

There's one more angel in Heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Joseph, we'll never forget you
It's tough, but we're gonna get by
There's one less place at our table
There's one more tear in my eye
But, Joseph, the things that you stood for
Like democracy, never die
Like love and peace, never die

(Like truth and light, never die)
Uh-huh
(Like truth and light, never die) Mm-hmm
(Like truth and light, never die) Sing the thing
(Like truth and light, never die) One more time
(Like truth and light, never die) One more
(Like truth and light, never die) Yee-hoo
(Like truth and light, never die) Alright
