"I'm An Angel Now"

One night I cried to Jesus as I sat beneath the tree.
I looked into the open sky and hoped He'd answer me.
I'm lost, dear Lord, I've traveled far but still I seem to roam.
Please light the way and lead me, Lord; I need to get back home.

I told Him of my burdens and of the sadness in my heart
that from His gracious love I'd never felt so far apart.
Why did you take my child, Lord? I cannot understand!
No longer can I touch his face or hold his hand.

I'm angry Lord, I'm missing him. I'm drowning in my sorrow.
Please help to heal my yesterday and face each new tomorrow.
It was then I heard his gentle voice and felt his presence near.
How I wanted so to hold hom as I cried another tear.

He said, "Mom, I'm an angel now, my spirit is free.
I'm an angel now in heaven, so please don't cry for me.
I was chosen by our Lord above and now I'm in His care.
When you need me, look inside your heart.
I promise to be there.

No one can ever take away our bond with one another.
For I'll always be your precious child as you will be my mother.
So if you cannot find your way or the road to home seems far,
Just look up to the Heavens and I'll be your guiding star."

He said, "Mom, I'm an angel now, my spirit is free.
I'm an angel now in Heaven ~ no need to cry for me."
