"I'm An Angel Now"
One night I cried to Jesus as I sat beneath the
tree.
I looked into the
open sky and hoped He'd answer me.
I'm
lost, dear Lord, I've traveled far but
still I seem to roam. Please
light the way
and lead me, Lord; I need to
get back home.

I told Him of my burdens and of
the sadness in my heart~
that from His gracious love I'd
never felt so far apart.
Why did you take my child,
Lord?
I cannot understand!
No longer can I touch her face
or hold her hand.

I'm angry Lord, I'm missing
her.
I'm drowning in my
sorrow.
Please help to heal my
yesterday and face each new tomorrow.
It
was then I heard her gentle voice
and felt her presence near.
How
I wanted so to hold her as I cried another tear.
She said, "Mom, I'm an angel now,
my spirit
is free.
I'm an angel now in heaven,
so please don't cry
for me.
I was chosen by our Lord above and now
I'm in
His care.
When you need me, look inside your heart.
I promise
to be there.

No one can ever take away our bond with one another.
For I'll always be your precious child as you
will be my mother.
So if
you cannot find your way or the road to home seems
far,
Just look up to the Heavens and I'll be your
guiding star.
She said, "Mom, I'm an angel now, my spirit
is free.
I'm an angel now in Heaven ~ no need to cry for
me."
