Angels

I woke up one day last week to the song Angels by Jessica Simpson, cos I use my radio as an alarm clock.

And through it all
He offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call
He won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
He breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

This is of course a cover version of Robbie Williams' Angels. But I guess the thing when she sang it, the "she" became a "he". And in the blur state of just being awakened, the words of the chorus just made me think of Jesus. "He offers me protection A lot of love and affection", "He won't forsake me".And just changing the word "angels" to Jesus, this could be a Christian song ;-Þ

This is as much inspiration as I've gotten over the last few days.... My personal prayer life, short of the morning and evening prayers, has been quite bad. But I know I can't use work and time as an excuse.
