Lyrics
It hurts when I fall down

But then you help me stand

When I get tossed around

You grab me by the hand

You’re always watching over me

You’re leading me through my journey

Oh my guardian angel

protecting me from danger

Oh my guardian angel

you make my life less painful

You’re always there for me

You give me protection

Even when I can’t see

You teach me life lessons

You’re always watching over me

You’re leading me through my journey

Oh my guardian angel

protecting me from danger

Oh my guardian angel

you make my life less painful
