Alabama - Angel among us
I was walking home from school
on a cold winter day,
Took a short cut through the woods
and I lost my way.
It was getting late
and I was scared and alone,
Then a kind old man
took my hand and led me home.
Mama couldn't see him,
but he was standing there.
But I knew in my heart
he was the answer to my prayer.
Woh ooh, 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,
And guide us with a light of love.
When life held troubled times,
and had me down on my knees,
There's always been someone
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.
Now ain't it kind of funny,
at the dark end of the road,
Someone lights the way
with just a single ray of hope.
Woh ooh, 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,
And guide us with a light of love.
They wear so many faces,
show up in the strangest places.
They grace us with their mercies
in our time of need.
Woh ooh, 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.
To guide us with a light of love.
