Guardian Spirit

[Intro]
Thank you, Lord, for the angels you send
For fighting through the darkness, for pulling me in
From the depths of despair, for the love that y joined
My guardian angel, my brother, my reason to carry on

[Verse 1]
It was winter, broke and lost, in a ditch I lay
Heroin’s cold grip, I was fading away
But then you sent him, Lord, with arms open wide
Paul found me there, and kept me alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, Lord, do I wear this armor so proud?
Celebrating my freedom, breaking through the clouds
Twelve long years, I’ve been clean from the fight
Still feeling your love, still holding on tight

[Chorus]
You keep sending angels, lifting me higher
Shielding my soul, igniting my fire
What’s my purpose, Lord? To feel, to grow, to mend
In a world full of pain, on your love I depend

[Verse 2]
Lost friends in the darkness, their lives taken away
Laced with poison, they couldn’t stay
But your grace protected me, pulled me from harm
Grandness of your mercy, kept me from alarm

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, Lord, do I wear this armor so proud?
Shields of courage, love, and hope avowed
Thirteen years of grace, a new life to defend
Every day I thank you, my Savior, my friend

[Chorus]
You keep sending angels, lifting me higher
Shielding my soul, igniting my fire
What’s my purpose, Lord? To feel, to grow, to mend
In a world full of pain, on your love I depend

[Bridge]
Through hard times and suffering, I’ve learned to stand
Guided by your angels, and my brother’s hand
Purpose is more than pain, it’s love that’s divine
To serve, to love, to walk your righteous line

[Outro]
So I wear my armor proudly, each day anew
Grateful for the angels, for the love so true
Lord, I know you’ve saved me, I’m here to proclaim
Your grace and your mercy, forever I’ll sing your name
