Angel, on this darkest night
Keep this candle burning bright
To light up the way of peace
Rays of love for you and me

Angel, are there eyes that see everywhere
All the tears and pain we share?
Yes, said the angel, there's a heart who cares
It's the voice on the wind that knows your name

We live in troubled times, deal with troubled minds
The blind lead the blind, enlightenment hard to find
Mankind in a state of confusion
Peace on earth is a grand illusion

Now polluted souls control roles of power
Our darkest hour will not be the Twin Tower
Evil the man, demands more destruction
Crushing but rushing without the fear of repercussion

What we need to do is take ourselves from the shelf
'Coz God won't help those who won't help themselves
While you sit on your ***es with rose colored gl***es
Hey brutes build troops and m***es, believe me

Can we get past this? Yes, we can
It'll take very woman and man understand
We need a planned of grand proportion
Not this hazed, dazed, crazed distortion of living

Angel on this darkest night
Keep this candle burning bright
To light up the way of peace
Rays of love for you and me

Angel, are there eyes that see everywhere
All the tears and pain we share?
Yes, said the angel, there's a heart who cares
It's the voice on the wind that knows your name

When you lay yourself to sleep
Pray for Lord your soul to keep
You will not die before you wake
God will forgive, God will forgive for your mistakes

One shot, one love, one planet
If you don't understand it you are doomed to damn it
All then how we plan to stop these heartless bandits
So our sons and daughters can inherit something livable

Unforgivable acts of mayhem
Looking for miracles but do you really give a damn?
While you watching all the evil that men do
There's a higher power watching you really, now

Check yourself before you check another then
You can deal for real what hate love is, feel me
Hypocrites kill me, twisting the facts
Holier than thou looking for the kick backs

Offering light at the end of the tunnel
Get off the tracks, there's a train coming, start running
Your life 'coz it affects others
Peace to my sisters and brothers

Angel on this darkest night
Keep this candle burning bright
To light up the way of peace
Rays of love for you and me

Angel, are there eyes that see everywhere
All the tears and pain we share?
Yes, said the angel, there's a heart who cares
It's the voice on the wind that knows your name

When you lay yourself to sleep
Pray for Lord your soul to keep
You will not die before you wake
God will forgive for your mistakes

I was lost like a lamb separated from the flock
Couldn't get any sleep watching minutes on the clock
So I closed my eyes and prayed He would see
The son that He'd lost to the industry

And He found me, grounded me, yeah, surrounded me
My heart pounds for Jesus eternally
Set me free, now safe I will always be
Time to fulfill my destiny

Angel on this darkest night
Keep this candle burning bright
To light up the way of peace
Rays of love for you and me

Angel, are there eyes that see everywhere
All the tears and pain we share?
Yes, said the angel, there's a heart who cares
It's the voice on the wind that knows your name
