Verse 1

(Spoken)

I was walkin' home from school

 on a cold winter day,

took a short cut through the woods

and I lost my way.

It was gettin' late, and I was scared and alone.

Then a kind old man took my hand, and led me home.

Bridge

Oh mama couldn't see him,

 but he was standing there,

 And I knew in my heart

 he was the answer to my prayer.

Chorus

 Oh, I believe there are Angels Among Us,

Sent down to us from somewhere up above.

 They come to you and me in our darkest hours

 to show us how to live

 to teach us how to give

 to guide us with a light of love.

Verse 2

When life held troubled times

 and had me down on my knees

 there's always been someone

 to come along and comfort me

 a kind word from a stranger

 to lend a helping hand

 a phone call from a friend

 just to say I understand

Bridge

 Now ain't it kind of funny

 at the dark end of the road

someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope.

Chorus

 Oh, I believe there are Angels Among Us,

Sent down to us from somewhere up above.

 They come to you and me in our darkest hours

 to show us how to live

 to teach us how to give

 to guide us with a light of love.

Bridge

They wear so many faces,

show up in the strangest places

 and grace us with their mercies in our time of need.

Chorus

 Oh, I believe there are Angels Among Us,

Sent down to us from somewhere up above.

 They come to you and me in our darkest hours

 to show us how to live

 to teach us how to give

 to guide us with a light of love.

 to guide us with a light of love
