I was walking home from school on a cold winter day. Took a shortcut through the woods, and i lost my way. It was getting late, and i was scared and alone. But then a kind old man took my hand and led me home. Mama couldn't see him, but he was standing there. And i knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers.
Chorus Oh i believe there are angels among us. Sent down to us from somewhere up above. They come to you and me in our darkest hours. To show us how to live, to teach us how to give. To guide us with a light of love.
When life held troubled times, and had me down on my knees. There's always been someone there to come along and comfort me. A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand. A phone call from a friend, just to say i understand. And ain't it kind of funny that at the dark end of the road. Someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope.
Chorus
They wear so many faces, show up in the strangest places. To guide us with their mercy, in our time of need.
Chorus To guide us with a light of love.

Maria,
This song too means alot to me!!!
I had a real bad car accident and was lucky to live... Any how I rolled a truck and was thrown from it, when I gained consiousness I ended up walking to a near by house as I was on a country road that was no often travelled. Any way my memory although it is just bits and pieces.. All of a sudden I was walking down this dirt road in the dark to a light I had no idea where I was but I was kind of being lead to this light now I know it was the house where I was going to get help...
Any way to make a long story short... the next day at home in bed (when I should have been in the hospital by the way) that song was released on the radio for the first time... Well I cried like a baby because thoes very words is what I had experienced the night before. That was the very first time I had known that I had an angel that most likely saved my life... 12 years later and that song makes the memories flood back to me and chokes me up. Even sharing that experience brings up a choking teary feeling.
Thanks for posting about this beautiful song. It is deffinately one to be shared!!!!

You are all my angels (((((((((((friends)))))))))))))), This song says it all and the music is beautiful with a chorus of children in the back ground.
Enjoy, Maria123
