Angels on my shoulder
By Lisa Noe

So many times I’ve come near to death
I’ve broken bones and lost my breath
I’ve wrecked my car, rammed it against a tree
But something always looked out for me

I believe in another life, that greets us when we die
But until the Lord says when I must, death defy
There must be an angel on my shoulder
God must have spoke, He must have said, she shall live until she’s older

I’ve seen that angel more than one time
It’s saved me, as I’ve witnessed the sublime
I’ve seen magic, yes miracles
As I move in God’s circles

Goodness will always prevail
My angel surely tells
I’ve done what I’m supposed to do
But yet God wants me to convince you.

Love is what makes the world turn
Love is what for most of us yearn
Angels they exist, walking along with us
God has sent them his messengers to quiet down the fuss.
