CHORUS:

Lord, I ask You to save me a pair of angel wings...
to fly around Heaven to view the beautiful things.
I don't want anything that's real fancy for me,
I want to soar through glory...happy and free.
See those pearly gates and walls of jasper shine,
feast my eyes upon the lush winding vines.
Lord, I ask You to save me a pair of angel wings...
to fly around Heaven to be with You, my Lord, my King.

VERSE:

Lord, I'm asking in advance before You call me home,
save me a pair of angel wings before they're all gone.
I think about the magnificent mansion built up there,
where everyone will gather to sing and to share.

VERSE:

I plan to meet You up there one of these days,
I'll read Your words,  as You know, I constantly pray.
I plan to sit and talk with You one of these days,
see Your precious face as we chat and convey. 

CHORUS:

You gave the world a beautiful place to live,
non-believer doubts fades as sins You do forgive.
It's getting to be a struggle here on this earth,
it's gotten wicked and full of all types and sorts.

VERSE:

I want to stay eternally wrapped in Your arms,
until it's time You decide to call me home.
I'll keep reading Your word and praying to You,
hold onto those angel wings until my time is due.

CHORUS
