I Always Knew There Were Angels

I ALWAYS KNEW THERE WERE ANGELS

I always knew there were angels
Despite what some say
I’ve felt them beside me
Heard them whisper
They stay
Close to me
By me
Always on hand
To protect me
And guide me
To help understand

I always knew there were angels
When I look at my life
They’ve guided me through
Both conflict
And strife
They’ve softened my hurts
As my deep wounds they heal
Always beside me
When alone I may feel

I always knew there were angels
As I learned as a child
To protect me
And keep me
When the storm’s running wild
When dangers do threaten
When all appears lost
When the pain seems too great
When life is a cost

Now I know there are angels
They’re there when I need
To have someone to talk to
When I need to be freed
When the ache in my heart
Feels like it will burst
I’ll talk to my angels
Talk to them first
