From the recording Stomping Grounds
Inspired by a news story of an old man who had lost his wife, who had a chance encounter with a little girl in a grocery store that changed their lives forever.
Lyrics
I Believe In Angels
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
So we can learn help ourselves when we don't think we're able
I Believe In Angels
At the store, 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 could 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
So we can learn help ourselves when we don't think we're able
I Believe In Angels
Now I have friends back in my life again, and sometimes when I'm with 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
So we can learn help ourselves when we don't think we're able
I Believe In Angels
I Believe In Angels
