A million white horses

Forever to be

Don't cry for the horses

Now in God's hands

As they dance and they prance

To a heavenly band

They were ours as a gift

But never to keep

As they close their eyes

Forever to sleep

Their spirits unbound

On silver wings they fly

A million white horses

Against the blue sky

Look up into heaven

You'll see them above

The horses we lost

The horses we loved

Manes and tails flowing

They gallop through time

They were never yours

They were never mine

Don't cry for the  horses

They will be back some day

When our time has come

They will show us the way

On silver wings they will lift us

To the warmth of the sun

When our life is over

And eternity has begun

We will jump the sun

And dance over the moon

A ballet of horses and riders

On the winds to a heavenly tune

Do you hear that soft nicker

Close to your ear?

Don't cry for the horses

Love the ones that are here

Don't cry for the horses

Lift up your sad eyes

Can't you see them

As they fly by?

A million white horses

Free from hunger and pain

Their spirits set free

Until we ride again
