I knew an Angel once
She was captured in the war
The music was my own
Her song she sang alone
I prayed to forever hold her hand
To forever be her loving man
Her home was far away
Just where I could not stay
God bless her as she sleeps
Please bless her as she awakes
Bless her as she walks
Keep trouble far away
Lord bless her when she cries
and whisper all the whys
Please hold her closely
in your arms
Please keep her safely
from all harm
As the time has past us by
Still it was joy to love her
for awhile
Dear God I beg you please
always bless the goodness
of the Angel who used to be.
