Tim Schreiber - Angel Lyrics

I almost died a month ago
I'm getting better every day
But I've felt like I could use some strength
To lift me on my way
So I sent a prayer to heaven
Last night when I went to bed
I asked God to send an angel
But He told me this instead

She called 9-1-1 when she found you on the floor
She held you close as EMS rushed through the door
She fought back tears as the ambulance siren roared
And when they drove away it was you she was praying for

You asked for an angel
To lift and make you strong
But what you never realized
Is she's been with you all along
You wanted an angel
But before this all occurred
You'd found your angel
When you married her
You married her

She held your hand when they delivered the bad news
Spent her nights on a plastic chair in the ICU
So when you woke up she could be right there for you
She's been by your side in all that you've been through

You asked for an angel
To lift and make you strong
But what you never realized
Is she's been with you all along
You wanted an angel
But before this all occurred
You'd found your angel
When you married her
You married her

You asked for an angel
To lift and make you strong
But what you never realized
Is she's been with you all along
You wanted an angel
But before this all occurred
You'd found your angel
When you married her
You married her
