When it’s hard for one to stand
God sends an angel to hold his hand.
When a loved one has to part
An angel helps mend a broken heart.
When a loved one says goodbye
If you listen you can hear the angels cry.
Part in joy and part in sorrow
For he’ll be among the angels tomorrow.
For when a loved one dies
He goes to where only angels dare to fly
