And the angels began to sing
I looked out my window
And new this is when my life will begin
I called upon the first angel
And asked for hope
Then I asked upon a second angel
And she told me to look down the slope
It was then, that I seen the light
Oh was it ever so bright
It was like daylight breaking in through the night
I had left my home , and headed towards that light
For I knew it was the only thing to do, that was right
It seemed that I had walked for miles, for there was no way to reach it
As bad as I wanted to, it would just seem to get further away.
I looked at the first angel, and asked
What am I suppose to do
For I need something new
She said just look and pray, to the Lord above
And he'll show you your new day,
Full of much love.
And he will hand you the key, to walk through life being happy.
He will take away all your pain
If you just call upon his name
As he will bless you with all of lifes greatest offers
And show you that life can be a lot softer.
