I'll Be an Angel Too
I will be so all alone
For you know I love you true
We will meet again some day
I will be an angel too
Close by a bed on a dark winter day
Stood a young man in the glen
Holding the hand of the one that he loved
Whose life then was fast fading dim
She had told him she would be his sweet wife
And they'd share each other's love
But God needed her there around his great throne
To sing with the angels above
I will be so all alone
For you know I love you true
We will meet again some day
I will be an angel too
She smiled at him as he kissed her sweet lips
There in the faint candle's glow
Then she lay still as the heartbroken lad
Whispered these words soft and low
The eyes of his darling forever would glow
Patiently waiting that day
When he would join her in that bright angel band
Together forever to stay
I will be so all alone
For you know I love you true
We will meet again some day
I will be an angel too
