Guardian Angel
Marian Jones © 2002

   

On the day that we are born,
An angel comes to earth.
She lingers, for awhile,
Until the timing of our birth.



Then, gracefully she flies,
On angel wings, so light,
And goes back up to Heaven -
To return to us each night.



So, as we live our lives
And each day is at its end,
Remember your special angel.
From Heaven she'll descend.



She'll watch you, as you sleep,
And meet with you in dreams.
She's the guardian of the night,
Flown down on moonlight beams.



So, when you lay your head to rest,
She'll stay until the morn;
Protecting you, as promised,
On the day that you were born.
