Sometimes I think that you fly like an angel,
Showing up just when I've needed a friend
Sharing your love and your great gift of kindness
Helping my day have a happier end.
Some days have sunshine, children, and good times
Joy multiplies with a friend there to share
Laughter, and warmth, and the peace of a person
That I know as someone who really does care.
Storms come with dark clouds and lost expectations,
Pain that can burrow down into your heart.
Sorrow that pulls the tears from inside you,
A heavy load lifted when a friend carries part.
Then there are days that seem to last forever
Or days that fly past at a great speed of light
Days where the ups and the downs come together
With the help of my friend, these days turn out right.
Chorus:
Angels are smiling, for you, my friend.
They will stand by you each day till the end.
They'll hold you up if your knees start to falter,
For in you they see our Savior's good friend.
(Written for one of my angel friends)
