Intro:  G5 D5   C5    G5 B5   C5 D5
 Spoken:
  G5             D5 
 I was walkin' home from school
  E5   C5 
 On a cold winter day,
  G5                E5        C5 
 Took a short cut through the woods
       D5  
 And I lost my way.
  G5             D5    E5      C5 
 It was gettin' late, and I was scared and alone.
  G5               F5       C5       D5 
 Then a kind old man took my hand, and led me home.

 Sung:
  C5         B5 
 Mama couldn't see him , 
      C5       D5 
 But he was standing there,
      C5    G5 
 And I knew in my heart 
             C5     D5 
 He was the answer to my prayer.

 Chorus:
   G5         E5             A5    D5  
 Oh, I be  -  lieve there are Angels Among Us,
  G5        E5       C5 
 Sent down to us from somewhere up above. 
  D5          G5      E5   C5              D5 
 They come to you and me in our darkest hours
     C5          B5  
 To show us how to live
     C5           D5  
 To teach us how to give
     C5           D5       G5  
 To guide us with a light of love.

 Instrumental:  
G5 B5   C5    D5 

  G5             D5 
 When life held troubled times
  E5   C5 
 And had me down on my knees
  G5          E5        C5 
 There's always been someone 
       D5  
 To come along and comfort me
  G5             D5    E5      C5 
 A kind word from a stranger To lend a helping hand
  G5               F5       C5       D5 
 A phone call from a friend just to say I understand
  C5         B5 
 Now ain't it kind of funny 
      C5       D5 
 At the dark end of the road
      C5    G5             C5     D5 
 Someone light the way with just a single ray of hope.

 **Chorus

 Bridge:
  C5         B5  
 They wear so many faces, 
  C5           B5 
 Show up in the strangest places
      C5                B5     A5           D5  
 And grace us with their mercies in our time of need.

 **Chorus


     C5            D5       G5  
 To guide us with a light of love.
 G5    C5    D5    G5
