Luyện nghe bài hát The Wisdom of Snow

Now why man's soul was bleeding
The angel had to
So invisible, he by him
And gently touched his hand

Which the man to stand there still
the winter's cold
And he stood there in that trance
The read his soul

It the man was not always like
The man he had
And angel wondered how that change had happened
And when it had

The man had been born to a and religious family
And in the midwest
And all throughout his
man, clearly, had been blessed

He grew up believing, other things
Man was in the image of god
He to school, observed all rules
While very hard

He had always tried to others
Excelled at every task
And when he'd high school
Of course, he was the one in his class

And in his summer
When it was for him to leave
He had offers several colleges
All of ivy league

And at in all his studies
He received straight "a"s
And when he tried his in theater
He got the lead in the play

It to nearly everyone
There was no talent that he
And for years on the football team
He was, the star

And there he also met the
Who did become his
her, his world was now complete
He had the perfect

When they had college
They were wed in a ceremony quite
Then they moved to new
In a dream they caught
all had been perfectly planned

She decorated park avenue apartment
In a 1920's style
And six months they had moved in
She him, they would soon be having a child

And after their first
He knew they were a son
Their lives not have been better
And had only just begun

Together they arrived at the hospital
On the delivery
The was taking no chances
And did not want to risk being

But while waiting outside the room
He could tell that was going wrong
For too many doctors rushing in
With coming out for too long

When her own doctor finally out
With several at his side
He that his wife had started hemorrhaging
And their best efforts, she died

Then in an to console him
A nurse gave him his to hold
But from the way the child felt in his arms
He knew was still more bad news to be told

The doctor gave the prognosis
As as anyone could
But before he could explaining
The father only too well

The child had been cut off from
For minutes, is far too long
The was now irreversible
His brain malformed

He'd hold a job,
Learn to or ever talk
And it would be a
If the even learned how to walk

And with those words the father
His entire world apart
And he for the words to express
The tearing inside of his

He cried out, why did god to take her
While she was still so
And then as if to cut him
Leave this here as his son

"please explain to me wisdom
How could he
To from me my precious wife
While leaving this

There is no for this life
Why does he exist
And if he had never been
There is no way he'd ever been missed

If man is in god's image
Then here is surely amiss
For there is of god
of god
of god
of god
of god in this"

And he asked for the child
To be in a state run home
And he had signed the papers
He walked that night alone

And in world he found unkind
He built a around his mind
And year he'd add new parts
Until it had also enclosed his

He kept his job and paid his
As he slowly a silhouette
Of a man walking the tombs
While his life within his wounds

He himself from all his friends
Even his sisters and
And as time it went by, he his eyes
So they could see the flaws in others

With this final glimpse, the stepped away
And the man shook out of his trance
Then continued his walk back his home
And few have given his soul half of a chance

And the angel felt helpless
As he that old man there
So he did what even do
And he quickly a prayer

And as the prayer flew to his
The angel did
To follow the old man
And stay closely by his

For on night can one deny
The of a more sympathetic eye
To cast our fellow man
And on this to understand

The of childhood dreams
Like over summer streams
And if one dared to remove veil
one retrace those childhood trails?

But whispers in the winter's
Told of dreams, forgiven sins
And who among us be deemed
To rescue some dream?

So on this of christmas eve
As again the spirits weave
Its snowswept and colored lights
With bits of magic into life

And as the snow gently down
Its soul intent to reach the
To cover the world still feels
to give them time to heal

For as men invest in
And in what they know
God in mercy
Like invests in snow
