joe was a carpenter

made a living working wood with the tools in his hand

a blue collar man

he's got a family

wife two kids and a van



he comes home every night with concerns for his family

would they always be fine

so he prayed to his God for a blessing

and a peace that he could not find



send me your angels to watch my children grow

show me you love me so I will always know that you cared enough for me

to send angels of your own

so send those angels home



so God he spoke down from heaven and said

joe now look here is the plan

i can honor your request

but my hope lies in trusting

they will reach for my hand



i can offer you my abundant love and forgiveness

but the rest is up to you to

be a part of my plan my right hand man

so just show them your love
