Failed angel trying hard, so hard to fly
Crippled wings don’t get you very high.
Tears of rage and sorrow falling from my eyes,
broken angel trying hard, so hard to fly.
Other angels shining bright and beautiful
Sheer perfection as they soar the universe.
Laughter blends with holy song and drifts to earth
Where the broken angels’ cries are hardly heard.
Failed angel whispers soft into the night.
“Jesus help me for this angel’s about to die.”
Empty hopes, shattered dreams, life passing by,
It would take a miracle for me to fly.
FAILED ANGEL, BROKEN ANGEL TAKE MY HAND
I WILL LIFT YOU UP IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO STAND.
ALL OF THIS MY PRECIOUS LOVE WAS IN MY PLAN.
BROKEN ANGEL, TRUST ME NOW AND TAKE MY HAND.
ALL AROUND ANGELS SOARING HIGH
ONCE WERE BROKEN ANGELS JUST ABOUT TO DIE.
I HEALED THEIR WOUNDS I WIPED THE TEARS FROM THEIR EYES.
I GAVE THEM NEW DREAMS PICKED THEM UP AND BID THEM FLY.
IF YOU THOUGHT THAT YOU COULD DO THIS ON YOUR OWN.
YOU MIGHT NOT LIFT UP ANOTHER BROKEN ONE.
PART OF LIFE AND LOVE AND BEING ALL YOU CAN
IS TO HELP ANOTHER BROKEN ANGEL STAND.
FAILED ANGEL, BROKEN ANGEL TAKE MY HAND
I WILL LIFT YOU UP ITS TIME FOR YOU TO STAND.
ALL OF THIS MY PRECIOUS LOVE WAS IN MY PLAN
BROKEN ANGEL, TRUST ME NOW AND TAKE MY HAND.
You made a miracle for me now I can fly.
