For Our Guardian Angels
We laughed unruffled if I cried when life was dark
You tell me of God who forever with me stays
Be not afraid, you prompt, make a mark!
Around the world, you guard me, bright and stark
You let me grow and never let me stray
We laughed unruffled if I cried when life was dark.
My pleas are many, hundreds, held in my heart
You clear the barriers, you lead the way
Be not afraid, you prompt, make a mark!
My angel don't leave me, on paths, I embark
Across seas and mountains, moon and sun rays
We laughed unruffled if I cried when life was dark
Beloved Guardian Angels, joy, you sing, all hark!
God's messages, you proclaim, good news to men all days
Be not afraid, you prompt, make a mark!
And if by chance I lose God in my heart
Teach and carry this lost wretched, I pray
We laughed unruffled if I cried when life was dark
Be not afraid, you prompt, make a mark!
A villanelle
