I need this today.  I need these words some days to remind me, to keep me from the desperation and fear this world is so full of.  I need these words to remind me of something so beautiful as life, so beautiful as the very fabric of love.  I need these words to remind myself that at the end of the day I am a part, not a whole.  I need this words to remind me that others know, others understand, and others can give to me what no other is capable of.  I need these words to remind me that in the darkness there is light; and in the loneliness, there is always an angel standing by.

“Angel Standing By”

By Jewel

All through the night I’ll be watching over you
And all through the night I’ll be standing over you
And through bad dreams I’ll be right there baby
holding your hand, telling you everything’s going to be alright
When you cry I’ll be there baby
telling you were never nothing less than beautiful
So don’t you worry
I’m your angel standing by
