i was walking home from school on a cold winter day

took a shortcut through the woods, and i lost my way

it was getting late, and i was scared and alone

then a kind old man took my hand and led me home

mama couldn't see him, but he was standing there

and i knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers

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 hour

to show us how to live, to teach us how to give

to guide us with a light of love

when life held troubled times, and had me down on my knees

there's always been someone there 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

and ain't it kind of funny that at the dark end of the road

someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope

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 hour

to show us how to live, to teach us how to give

to guide us with a light of love

they wear so many faces, show up in the strangest places

to guide us with their mercy, in our time of need

oh i belive there are angels among us

sent down to us from somewhere up above

they come to you and me in our darkest hour

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
