Angels
by Amy Grant

Album: The Collection

Take this man to prison
The man heard Herod say
And then four squads of soldiers came
And carried him away
Chained up between two watchmen
Peter tried to sleep
But beyond the walls
An endless prayer was lifting for his keep

Then a light cut through the darkness
Of a lonely prison cell
And the chains that bound the man of God
Just opened up and fell
And running to his people
Before the break of day
There was only one thing on his mind
Only one thing to say

Angels watching over me
Every move I make
Angels watching over me

Angels watching over me
Every step I take
Angels watching over me

God only knows the times
My life was threatened just today
A reckless car ran out of gas
Before it ran my way
Near misses all around me
Accidents unknown
Though I never see with human eyes
The hands that lead me home

But I know they're all around me
All day and through the night
When the enemy is closing in
I know sometimes they fight
To keep my feet from falling
I'll never turn away
If you're asking what's protecting me
Then you're gonna hear me say

Got His Angels watching over me
Every move I make
Angels watching over me

Angels watching over me
Every step I take
Angels watching over me

Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me

Got His Angels watching over me
Every move I make
Angels watching over me

Angels watching over me
Every step I take
Angels watching over me

Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me

Though I never see with human eyes
The hands that lead me home
