It Takes an Angel

The gods walk about rushing, always in a hurry They don’t have time to talk They have too much to do

They’ll drop in say something important and leave before you can ask before you can understand

But the angels never rush out They do all the work that the gods don’t want They stay and clean up

They don’t get the authority They don’t get the glamour But they stay with you and hold you when you cry

It might take a god to heal you but it takes an angel to make you better
