about

Sometimes we can be our own worst enemies. We struggle against things that are ultimately good for us. I think when we let our guards down and become more open, we discover wonderful things in our lives.

lyrics

Fighting with Angels

There came a time
Your name was the first word on my lips as I arose
Groggy and half-asleep,
morning light not yet arrived.
There came a time
When all my time with you was like a whispered prayer,
Unformed but no less fervent.
On hearing it, it sounded like a sigh.

If I’d known I’d feel such joy,
Would I have bended sooner.
Could I stop fighting and let go, just let go?

(Chorus)

I’ve been fighting with angels
How could I help but lose?
Their gifts lie scattered all around
I’m hurting and confused.
I’ve been fighting with angels, fighting with angels.

You came and stayed
Sweeping out the shadows when you took my hand
Holding it gently.
I knew I wouldn’t be afraid again.
