An Angel
I heard an angel sing
A sweet melody.
I heard an angel sing-
An angel sing to me.
I saw an angel dance
By the moonlight.
He spun around,
Then swiftly took flight.
The angel flew away,
High into the sky.
I might not see him again,
Until the day I die.
But he visits me each night,
And hides out of sight.
I only know he's there
By the small glow of light.
I felt the angel's touch,
When I was asleep.
Now I fear, Angel,
That I've fallen too deep.
