Story behind the song
My good friend Debbie Rogers began this as a poem and I just loved the idea and we converted it a lyric. By the way she is an awesome poet.
Lyrics
Don’t Let the Feather Hit the Ground Verse As I walked the busy street Saw a homeless man standing there Just turned my head and walked on It wasn’t my place to care! But from the corner of my eye Within my peripheral view Saw an Angel drop a feather What was I supposed to do? Chorus The feather came from her wing As she pulled it out She whispered softly in my ears Don’t let the feather hit the ground Verse I walked a little farther Saw a trembling child in tears That wasn’t my concern! The Angel then appears I watched that feather float free Drifting slowly to the ground Tears fell upon her rosy cheeks The angel wore a frown Chorus The feather came from her wing As she pulled it out She whispered softly in my ears Don’t let the feather hit the ground Verse I grabbed the feather in the air Walked over where she stood She looked at me and said Deep inside there’s still some good Each time you turn your back A feather then floats free Now look upon my Angel’s face And tell me what you see Ending Verse I was staring at myself The meaning became so clear If that last feather had fallen All the good would disappear Upon my knees I prayed to God Forgive this sinner please There’ll be no more dropped feathers To drift upon the breeze Chorus The feather came from her wing As she pulled it out I closed my eyes, I heard her sing You saved the feather from hitting ground Copyright ©2008 Debbie Rogers/ Marvin H Lane
