The Words of An Angel

In one dark moment, defeated and alone.
I was struggling to find the answers, 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 show me the way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of an angel.
Who's promising to walk with me, every step and every day.

Then one day she came knockin', so I opened up my door.
Man I wanted her more than anything but I wanted the bottle more.
One morning after drinking I woke up fully dressed on my floor.
Not yet realizing the pain that she'd endured.

It's gonna' have to take one of God's angels.
To show me the way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of an angel.
Who's 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's gonna' have to take one of God's angels.
To show me the way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of an angel.
Who's 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 blessed a man can be.
To have a righteous lady sent to set him free.
With unconditional love for all eternity.

It's gonna' have to take one of God's angels.
To show me the way.
It's gonna' have to take the words of my very own angel.
Who's promising to walk with me, every step and every day.
