A little boy with no home, he sits and wonders why
A single mom with no job all she can do is cry
All they can do is hope and at night they pray, "Lord help us find our way."
In the arms of the angels

At night the bombs all sound
A soldier dives to the ground
I'll see my family soon, It wont be long
By then this war will be done and gone.
In the arms of the angels.

A little girl thats listening to her parents fight
She runs behind the couch as her dad shatters a light
She says, "Lord please help take away my fears."
She sits and waits as she dries her own tears
In the arms of the angels

An old woman kneeling in the dirt
"I've lived a life filled with happiness and hurt."
She looks down at her husbands grave
The tombstone reads, "I'm in the arms of the angels now. I have been saved."
In the arms of the angels.
