feel the sunshine on my skin 
it must be you smiling within 
from above, i feel your love fall downward
trouble waters wash over me
like a stone thrown into the sea 
i’m going down,
don't let me drown in the deep end
you are my mercy angel
you hear my every sound 
your love is everlasting 
beyond this world we know
feel your presence in my room
watching over my every move 
i was raised to know the ways of jesus
try to keep my heart open wide
'til i leave this earthly life
i'm going home to rest beside my angel
you are my mercy angel
you hear my every sound 
your love is everlasting
beyond this world we know
i remember meeting you
in the band room after school
on our first date, we stayed out late
and you kissed me
