Earth Angel
Fear of dying overwhelms you.
You can die in trust and grace
or in fear and struggle.
Let me comfort you in my wings.
I’m your earth angel.
You have put a hold on your life.
Learning to live is learning to let go.
It is a tragedy of our struggle to hold on.
Let me comfort you in my wings.
I’m your earth angel.
Fear of leaving us consumes you.
Let me help you understand
the difference between
giving up and letting go.
Let me comfort you in my wings.
I’m your earth angel.
You can die in trust and grace.
To hold on and grasp out of fear
is to deny God’s gift of life.
Let me comfort you in my wings
I’m your earth angel.
