The song Angels among us by Alabama began to play and Reba shut off the radio. A bang on the passenger side window made Reba want to faint. A blonde hair green eyed girl mouthed "Can I have a ride?" Reba rolled down the window and she asked "Where you headed?" The girl answered "Anywhere." The traffic began to move and Reba and the girl began to talk.
"What is your name?" Reba asked. "Angel." the girl answered. "Oh." Reba answered. "You've got the same name as that country singer that just died." Reba said. "Boy, that makes my day even better." Angel answered back. The two continued to talk until Angel suddenly yelled "Stop!" "Get out of the car quick!"
Reba didn't understand the girl's outburst but she slammed on the brakes and jumped out onto the paved road. "Run!!" Angel's voice was muffeled, but Reba ran and when she turned around a big BANG! and a flash of light the car exploded. "Oh my Gosh!" Reba screamed as she ran to her now enflamed car.
A white sheet of paper fluttered from the sky and this is what it read "Mrs. Hart you have just helped a stranger earn her wings." "I have been authorized to give you your one wish." "Thank you." Reba read the note over and over and she began to wonder if think about her one wish."I think I know what that wish is." Reba said as she ran down the street.
I was walking home from school on a cold winter day
Took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way
It was getting late, and I was scared and alone
But then a kind old man took my hand and led me home
Mama couldn't see him, oh but he was standing there And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers
Oh I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with the light of love
When life held troubled times, and had me down on my knees
There's always been someone to come along and comfort me A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand
A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand And ain't it kind of funny at the dark end of the road
That someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope
Oh I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with the light of love
They wear so many faces, show up in the strangest places
To grace us with their mercy, in our time of need
Oh I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
To guide us with the light of love
To guide us with a light of love
How many of you want to know the surprise?
