They are the little children
their needs they are very few
but there's a certain favor
that I want to ask of you

Please send down some Angels
to gently hold them as they sleep
that would be a promise made
and not to hard for you to keep

Let the Angels watch them
at times when moms can't see
and quickly kiss away the hurt
when they fall and skin a knee

At times they'll feel a little down
and their friends will be far away
have an Angel take their sorrow
so they will have a better day

Sometimes they'll be lonely
or life won't seem worth while
they'll really need their Angels then
to give them back their smile

Facing the world as they grow up
surely won't be an easy chore
so please remind their Angels
at times they're needed a little more

I ask this for the children
so they won't have to worry
even when it seems that life
makes them grow up in a hurry

Let them feel the comfort
from lifes every day little things
at times when they least expect it
let them feel their Angels wings
