This performance was filmed and recorded at home during lockdown of Spring 2020. Given the circumstances, it felt right to include the angelic voices of many talented friends from across the world using the magic of technology.
All proceeds to go to the Project Mama Covid-19 Solidarity fund – a Bristol charity that provides antenatal, birth and postnatal support for female refugees, asylum-seekers and other displaced women. chuffed.org/project/covid-19-solidarity-for-isolated-mums

Lyrics:
Those little ghosts are creeping in I tell myself it’s just the wind They say there are angels Angels in our life come through To help us through the night You hear the spite I tell myself The things I’d say to no-one else I call on the angel I feel you walking in the room In this bluest hour I’m held by you And even though you will depart I’ll always keep you in my heart The voice of the angel How do you know me so well My angel, my Emmanuel
