My Little Angel
Sometimes angels aren't covered in light
Sometimes angels aren't always right
Sometimes angels don't have wings
But nothing compares with the love that they bring.
My little angel isn't very tall
My little angel hasn't said a word at all
But there's nothing like the sound that I hear
When my little angel is drawing near.
When my little angel comes around
I feel I can fly, and I'm leaving the ground
All I hear are the beating wings
Baby's cries, but no other thing
My little angel sleeps all day
But when he's in my arms, there's nothing to say
His halo is a cow-lick of soft, golden hair
He can't work miracles but I don't care
My little angel can't walk or talk
But time flies fast, and you race the clock
My little angel won't be little for long
But my angel will never be gone.

Standing Watch
We have one Angel standing watch
Above us as we sleep;
Another gathers up the hopes
And dreams we wish to keep.
One Angel is the tiny voice
That whispers in our ears,
With words of love and comfort
To conquer grief and fears.
We have a Guardian of Love
Who protects our destiny,
And helps us with our soulmate
Who with we were meant to be.
We have a host of Angels
That keep us company,
In order that we become
The best that we can be.

Sweet Gentle Angel
Sweet gentle angel, not that I aspire
To win thy favor, through ambition raise
My wishes high, I wake anew my lays;
But that thine image may adorne my lyre
With beauty, more than fancy could inspire!
As, when behind the silver clouds she strays,
The moon peeps through, and sheds a mellow blaze,
Till woods, hills, valleys, with enchantment fire;
So does the soul, through pent in mortal mold,
Break through the mortal veil; illume thy form;
With softened lights each varied feature warm;
And in thine eyes such fairy radiance hold,
That on each object round they beam a magic charm.
