Looking for Angels (Live)

[Chorus]

Going through this life looking for angels

People passing by looking for angels

[Verse 1]

Walk this world alone try to stay on my feet

Sometimes crawl, fall

But I stand up 'cause I'm afraid to sleep

Open my eyes to a new day

With all new problems and all new pain

All the faces are filled with so much anger

Losing our dignity and hope from fear of danger

After all the wars, after settling the scores

At the break of dawn we will be deaf to the answers

There's so much bigotry, misunderstanding and fear

With eyes squinted and fists clenched

We reach out for what is dear

We're on a pilgrimage, a crusade for hope

'Cause in our hearts and minds and souls we know

We need more than this

[Chorus]

Going through this life looking for angels

People passing by looking for angels

Walking down the streets looking for angels

Everyone I meet looking for angels

[Verse 2]

So many nations with so many hungry people

So many homeless scrounging around for dirty needles

On the rise, teen suicide

When will we realize

We've been desensitized by the lies of the world

We're oppressed and impressed by the greedy

Whose hands squeeze the life out of the needy

When will we learn that wars, threats, and regrets

Are the cause and effect of living in fear

Who can help protect the innocence of our children

Stolen on the internet with images

We represent a generation

That wants to turn back the nation

To let love be our light and salvation

We need more than this

[Chorus]

Going through this life looking for angels

People passing by looking for angels

Walking down the streets looking for angels

Everyone I meet looking for angels

[Bridge]

Oh little town of Bethlehem how still we see the lie above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silence stars go by

I became a savior to some kids I'll never meet

Sent a check in the mail to buy them something to eat

What will you do to make a difference to make a change

What will you do to help someone along the way

Just a touch, a smile as you turn the other cheek

Pray for your enemies, humble yourself

Love's staring back at me

In the midst of the most painful faces

Angels show up in the strangest of places

[Chorus]

Going through this life looking for angels

People passing by looking for angels

Walking down the streets looking for angels

Everyone I meet looking for angels

[Outro]

Looking for Angels

Looking for Angels

Walking down the streets looking for angels

Everyone I meet looking for angels
