Lyrics

I was walking down a path of darkness
On my way to better days
When the last of my nine lives gave out
And I almost froze in place
As I marched right out of hell
And made it home alive
I remember the words my Grandma said
That I sang by her graveside


Angel of God my guardian dear
To whom His love commits me here
Ever this day be at my side
To light, to guard, to rule, to guide

Take a look back, back to my youth
I spent a lot of time alone
Wasn’t born with no silver spoon privilege
We ate hotdogs and soup from the bone
My father spent a lot of time away
He was out with the other guys
My mom took it out on us six kids
How did we make it out alive


Angel of God my guardian dear
To whom His love commits me here
Ever this day be at my side
To light, to guard, to rule, to guide


Lead Break


Family lays blame
Yeah they keep me away
I’ve been a black sheep
A black sheep my whole life
All those nights on my bed
Cried my pillow wet
You’ve been watching over me
My whole life


Angel of God my guardian dear
To whom His love commits me here
Ever this day be at my side
To light, to guard, to rule, to guide
