ONE MORE ANGEL IN HEAVEN
Reuben:
Father, we've something to tell you, a story of our time
A tragic but inspiring 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
RR, RR's Wife, & MM:
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
Brothers:
But Joseph the things that you stood for
RR:
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 no fear
To wrestle with a goat
His blood-stained coat is tribute to
His final sacrifice
His body may be past its peak
But his soul's in paradise
So long, little Jo
Adios, buckeroo
Ten-four, good buddy
Jacob:
There's one less place at our table
There's one more tear in my eye
Brothers:
But Joseph the things that you stood for
RR:
Like truth and light never die
Brothers:
Carve his name with pride and courage
Napthali:
Let no tear be shed
Brothers:
If he had not laid down his life
We all would now be dead
