I am looking for an angel
who is so kind
I am looking for an angel
who will understand
how to deal with evil
who will prevail
with powerful will
an angel who will
be kind
but still
overcome the evil spell
an angel who will not succumb to temptation
or beauty
who will protect honesty
value honesty
an angel
who will stand
on strong ground
of Faith
powerful
but always predictable
on the right side
an angel
who will not hide
in the darkest hour
an angel who does not follow the herd
an angel who sees through
who will know
the truth
even when no one speaks it
an angel
who believes in one human family
in our common destiny
who will see me through
and I am still
looking for an angel
