Lyrics
Short On Angels

Songwriter:: Drew Rice


Verse 1

A nice young man said thank you and please, stricken by a deadly disease
A heart of gold and always kind to others, a loving son and a wonderful brother

Chorus

How could this happen, and why so young
A beautiful life ended, which had only just begun
Well there’s only one answer, as far as I can tell
Well Heaven must be short on Angels

Verse 2

A little girl with big brown eyes, the cutest thing with the sweetest of smiles
Taken away in the blink of an eye, the family grieves and her parents just cry

Repeat chorus

Bridge

And in this world full of terror and hate
Well their souls were needed, Heaven could not wait
The truly blessed, yeah the chosen few
Lifted up to watch over me and you

Chorus

How could this happen, and why so young
Beautiful lives ended which had only just begun
Well there’s only one answer, as far as I can tell
Heaven must be short on Angels
Heaven must be short, Heaven must be short
Yes, Heaven must be short on A
