Dear Dad,
Dad, this song has been in my head for the past week. (She Might be an Angel) I think it is because all we have been talking about this week is Charity. Everytime I think about it, I think of you, and those many times you have told me, and the times that I have been there to see the times that you helped those in need. In those times you were a big example to me, and you showed me that charity is another way to thank my Heavenly Father for the blessings that I have.On my mission I will have many opportunities to serve and to help people, and I hope that I can be as selfless as you are when those times come.
Thank you,
Elder Boy
She Might be an Angel
by Steiner Tommy Shane
There's a man standing on the corner
With a sign sayin "will work for food"
You know the man
You see him every morning
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wondering when the lights going to turn green
Never knowing what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean
What if he's an angel sent here from Heaven
And he's making certain that you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in his face
Knowing deep down it could have been his saving grace
What if he's an angel
There's a man, There's a woman
Living right above you in apartment
G, There's alot of noise coming from the ceiling
And it don't sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words and his anger fly
Come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye
What if she's sent here from heaven
And she's making certain that you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she's an angel
A little girl on daddy's lap
Hiding her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel, Most people do
But what if you were sitting in her daddy's shoes
Maybe she's an angel
Sent here from Heaven
And she's making certain you're doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she's an angel
