Inspired by the heartwarming true story of an old man who had lost his wife and a chance meeting with a little girl

Lyrics

She'd been my wife nearly half of my life
When the good Lord took her back from me, it stabbed me like a knife
I stayed at home alone, a cold and hopeless stranger
Until her voice rang through my memory; she said I Believe In Angels

          Angels From Heaven, strong and brave
          They can reach down deep inside us and help us find our way
          Shine a light into the darkness on a path to brighter days
          And though we need to help ourselves, they find us when life is painful
          I Believe In Angels

After church, a little girl looked up
She said today's my birthday, will you give me a hug?
Her Mom smiled and shrugged her shoulders - those little arms held me like cables
I swear my wife was there with me 'cause I Believe In Angels

          Angels From Heaven, strong and brave
          They can reach down deep inside us and help us find our way
          Shine a light into the darkness on a path to brighter days
          And though we need to help ourselves, they find us when life is painful
          I Believe In Angels

Now I have people in my life again
And sometimes when I see them
I can see their perfect wings
And know we're all here for a reason

          We're Angels From Heaven, strong and brave
          We can reach down deep inside and help each other find our way
          Shine a light into the darkness on a path to brighter days
          And we've all been called to someone's side when their life is painful
          I Believe In Angels
