Ordinary Angels

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 climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting 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, 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, when the mountain that you're climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting 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 climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting 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
