The Angel stood before her, as she began to shed a tear
do not to worry child, there's nothing here to fear
You have lived a life so pure with love, lived a life so true
now it's time for your reward, the Lord is calling you

But what about my mother, she cried when I was ill
your mother knows your destiny, something to fulfill
But what about my brother, and sisters I leave behind
you are a special Angel, you'll be with them, you'll find

You are not leaving this world, you are only getting wings
you will be left to guide them, through the ordinary things
You have a special calling, the Lord is in command
you will be their guardian Angel, left to lend a hand

When you were sick and dying, your prayers were of family
never once did you ask the Lord, never made a plea
That's why we give the greatest gift, a life of eternity
so you'll be there to guide your love, love of family
