Angels On Earth

They say the angels are high up in the sky

Amongst the Gods in the palatial clouds

Some say they shine in the sky

As distant stars day and night.

What would it be if that ain't the case?

Whet would it be if they were in our midst?

Walking with us, running with us

In those agonising moments of angst and distress

I've seen them in many colours

Many faces, many names that my memory fades

In your worst moment, you find them

In your hopelessness, they give you hope

Don't give up is what they say

And surely they do it day after day

Behind the attire, their agonies are forgotten

Behind their smiles, their tears are hidden.

Battles are fought day and night

Against an enemy invisible and strong

Losing the guard is not an option

Losing the faith, is losing a life

Some call them as doctors

Some call them nurses and what more

But for me you are all angels

To save me from the lurking darkness

I see hope, I see trust

Like a tree against a raging storm

Valiant battles fought, fighting to survive

Not just for you, but for all of us.

Angels to live on earth

Angels do walk around me

Angels do protect me from going away

Angels on earth you are - shining bright everyday
