~Angels~
"Angels"
Did you see the angels smiling
The day that you were born?
Your smile lit up the Heavens
On that bright and sunny morn.
And gladness swept the treetops
And caressed them with a breeze;
The sunlight danced with laughter
As it whispered to the trees.
Did you hear the angels crying
When you had that broken heart?
You'd lost someone so dear to you,
It tore your soul apart.
Then, day by day, you realized
That love would still be there;
In memories of laughter,
And sorrow, and despair.
Did you hear the angels whisper
As they sang a song of love?
Did you feel their gentle presence
As it streamed down from above?
An angels always guards you
He's just outside your door;
And you'll hear that angel beckon
To your heart, forever more.
You'll hear that angel whisper
You'll hear that angel cry;
You'll see that angel smiling
From the clouds up in the sky.
Yes, angels watch, and care for you
Because they love you so.
So keep your angels in your heart
No matter where you go.
