Throughout our lives, we have all lost someone close to us who we have loved dearly. And while we know these people are watching down on us from Heaven, we still miss their presence on Earth.
Donna Taggart’s rendition of Jenn Bostic’s ‘Jealous Of The Angels’ is absolutely beautiful. This song is a tribute to all of our lost loved ones, and it will truly touch your heart in ways I cannot even describe.
“I didn’t know today would be our last, or that I’d have to say goodbye to you so fast
I’m so numb, I can’t feel anymore, prayin’ you’d just walk back through that door
And tell me that I was only dreamin’, you’re not really gone as long as I believe
There will be another angel, around the throne tonight, your love lives on inside of me
And I will hold on tight, it’s not my place to question, only God knows why
I’m just jealous of the angels around the throne tonight”
Donna’s amazing voice makes these lyrics even more powerful. It’ll bring tears to your eyes.
In the music video, Donna is singing with a piano accompaniment, and candles are lit on top of the piano. A beautiful harmony is also being sung by the other woman in the video.
Through the different scenes in the video, you see Donna singing in a field and also journaling at a café while sipping on a warm drink. Her eyes look sad as she is remembering a loved one that is now gone.
