In one dark moment, defeated and alone;
I was struggling to find an answer, a reason to carry on.
My life of self-destruction has finally worn me down.
There's just nothing left to save me now, all hope is gone.
It's gonna' have to take one of God's angels;
To help show me a way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of an angel;
Promising to walk with me, every step and every day.
Then one day she came knocking; I opened up my door.
Man I wanted her more than anything but I wanted the bottle more.
And one night after drinking I woke up fully dressed on my floor;
Not yet realizing the pains that she'd endured.
It's gonna' have to take one of God's angels;
To help show me a way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of an angel;
Promising to walk with me, every step and every day.
Hiding back the tears she smiled and said “I love you.
Though you've fallen again my promises still stand true;
That no matter what it takes together we'll pull through.”
And when she kissed my hand it was then I finally knew.
It had to take one of God's angels;
To help show me a way.
It had to take the words of an angel;
Promising to walk with me, every step and every day.
It's as if a light just lit up, inside of me.
Knowing just how blesses a man can be.
To have a righteous lady sent to set him free;
With unconditional love for all eternity.
It had to take one of God's angels;
To help show me the way.
It's had to take the words of my very own angel;
Promising to walk with me, every step and every day.
