An angel came to me last night
Surrounded by such heav'nly light
She did not speak she merely smiled
A comfort like no other

One minute the spot where she stood
Just a bare floor made out of wood
Seemed to glow for a moment more
Where this angel did hover

I held no fear nor did I dread
Her coming back beside my bed
I felt so safe and calm instead
Not one bit did I shudder

For sure as long as I exist
I'll ne'er forget that blessed tryst
As on my pillow rest my head
Curled up beneath my cover
