I Saw an Angel Tonight

Lyrics

You prayed for me every night When I was only a child I can't imagine growing up Without your love Now I believe in the truth 'Cause I saw Jesus in you And I'm so thankful For the way you brought me up You said that He'd never let me go Well, I feel His arms of love And I just want you to know I saw an angel tonight Within the light of your eyes I heard you praying As I drifted into a dream I saw an angel tonight And as you knelt by my side I knew that love was covering me When I was weak, you were strong When I was sad, there was song With every memory There's an everlasting peace And thanks to you, I have faith And love that can't be replaced You took this child And you made a man of me You said that He'd never let me go Well, I feel His arms of love And I just want you to know I saw an angel tonight Within the light of your eyes I heard you praying As I drifted into a dream I saw an angel tonight And as you knelt by my side I knew that love was covering me Now I lay me down to sleep I'll pray for you faithfully And when it's hard to believe Take cover under my wings You shelter me I saw an angel tonight Within the light of your eyes I heard you praying As I drifted into a dream I saw an angel tonight And as you knelt by my side I knew that love was covering me I saw an angel tonight Within the light of your eyes I heard you praying As I drifted into a dream I saw an angel tonight And as you knelt by my side, whoa-oh... I knew your love was covering me, yeah Oh... I saw an angel tonight
