Ordinary Angels
by Karyn Williams

Album: Letting Go of Perfect


She's counting her change in the line at the counter of the grocery store.
Every penny, every nickel she can find but she still comes up short.
Just a single mom doing the best that she can when a stranger slips a twenty in the palm of her hand.
She turns around to thank him but he's already disappeared out the door.

Just because God doesn't part the sea,
pull you from the fire doesn't mean that He's not there, His fingerprints are everywhere.
When the mountain that you're climbin' seems so tall and the battle that you're fightin' makes you feel so all alone,
It doesn't mean you're on your own.
When you need it most, the world is full of ordinary angels.

He got back safe from his second tour of duty six months ago.
But when he closes his eyes he's still fighting that fight right here at home.
When the nightmares come in the dead of the night, his little boy runs in and turns on the light,
And says "Daddy don't you worry" as he reaches up to kiss him on tippy toes.

Just because God doesn't part the sea,
pull you from the fire doesn't mean that He's not there, His fingerprints are everywhere.
Oh oh, when the mountain that you're climbin' seems so tall and the battle that you're fightin' makes you feel so all alone,
It doesn't mean you're on your own.
When you need it most, the world is full of ordinary angels, ordinary angels.

When the mountain that you're climbin' seems so tall and the battle that you're fightin' makes you feel so all alone,
It doesn't mean you're on your own.
When you need it most, the world is full of ordinary angels, ordinary angels.
