One More Angel In Heaven
By Jerry for Nicholas

Verse one:
How could we know how much you’d change our lives?
You were the reason for each day
We remember the love we felt when you arrived
But how could we know you wouldn’t stay?
It seems so long ago that I held you close
I remember the softness of your face
I remember the sweetness of your little smile
These memories time cannot erase
Bridge:
Deep inside there’s such loss; there’s such pain
And though we cry, we can’t forget what we have gained
Chorus:
There is one more angel in heaven
There is one more star in the sky
There is one more angel in heaven
And though it’s hard to say goodbye
A prayer away is where you’ll always be
Dear Nicholas, you’re our angel that God set free
Verse two:
Just like a bird, you spread your wings and flew
I guess your love could not be caged
I guess God needed you to make heaven smile
I guess He knew your special ways
There will never be another soul
Who could touch our lives like you
There will never be a greater gift
Then the time we had with you
Bridge:
Deep inside there’s such loss; there’s such pain
And though we cry, we can’t forget what we have gained
Repeat Chorus 2x
