Now mama couldn't see him, oh but he was standing there
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with the light of love
But then a kind old man took my hand and led me home
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
It was getting late and I was scared and alone
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
Oh, I believe there are angels among us
And ain't it kind of funny, at the dark end of the road
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
Oh, I believe there are angels among us
That someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope
A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand
Oh, I believe there are angels among us
They wear so many faces, show up in the strangest places
There's always been someone there to come along and comfort me
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
When life held troubled times and had me down on my knees
To grace us with their mercy, in our time of need
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To guide us with the light of love
To guide us with the light of love
