Weatherworn Angel

In time we get taken,

In time the rudder just sinks

we get our change at the end of the line

But time is not patient for us sinners and saints

Who will wade through darkness before rolling up to the light

Your weather worn angel will always be there

Whose weather torn hands will hold you and guide you

In knowing that what really matters still stands.

I’m over your shoulder here smiling,

You’re never alone my child

Sometimes we find grace

In the tatters of faith

When we ride on the backroads of life

With no destination

Save to be amazed

At the way a little bitter will set sweetness alight

Your weather worn angel will always be there

Whose weather torn hands will hold you and guide you

In knowing that what really matters still stands

I’m over your shoulder here smiling,

You’re never alone, my child

Your weather worn angel will always be there

Whose weather torn hands will hold you and guide you

In knowing that what really matters still stands

Over your shoulder here smiling,

You’re never alone, my child
