Footprints of an Angel

It was a cold winter’s night the frost was chilling the air

It was a cold winter’s night the frost was chilling the air Behind the veil of coldness was a Teddy in despair

It was a cold winter’s night the frost was chilling the air Behind the veil of coldness was a Teddy in despair Furry cheeks turning the color of crimson rose

It was a cold winter’s night the frost was chilling the air Behind the veil of coldness was a Teddy in despair Furry cheeks turning the color of crimson rose as was the fate of his of prim and proper button nose

His paws were getting heavy as the snow was too deep

His paws were getting heavy as the snow was too deep Soon they would be frozen and fall into a deep sleep

His paws were getting heavy as the snow was too deep Soon they would be frozen and fall into a deep sleep He looked up to the heaven's for some type of sign

His paws were getting heavy as the snow was too deep Soon they would be frozen and fall into a deep sleep He looked up to the heaven's for some type of sign A twinkling star, or a dove of some magical kind

His paws were frostbitten the numbness so real

His paws were frostbitten the numbness so real Who could save him from his frozen ordeal?

His paws were frostbitten the numbness so real Who could save him from his frozen ordeal? His mind was screaming inside of his furry head

His paws were frostbitten the numbness so real Who could save him from his frozen ordeal? His mind was screaming inside of his furry head At the plight He might be getting frozen to death

" Oh God can you send down an angel from above,

" Oh God can you send down an angel from above, So that they can help me find a warm pair of gloves.”

" Oh God can you send down an angel from above, So that they can help me find a warm pair of gloves.” “My front paws are frozen, I fear my hind ones will be too

" Oh God can you send down an angel from above, So that they can help me find a warm pair of gloves.” “My front paws are frozen, I fear my hind ones will be too If only I had some dry and comforting teddy bear shoes"

He traced another mile and just ahead saw a house made of logs

He traced another mile and just ahead saw a house made of logs He made his way in and on a pillow was a tiny dog

He traced another mile and just ahead saw a house made of logs He made his way in and on a pillow was a tiny dog Too tired to scream or run he made his way to the bed

He traced another mile and just ahead saw a house made of logs He made his way in and on a pillow was a tiny dog Too tired to scream or run he made his way to the bed Praying he would wake up to fight the bitter cold ahead

The next morning he found Warm boots near by

The next morning he found Warm boots near by The feelings in his Paws came back, he wanted to cry

The next morning he found Warm boots near by The feelings in his Paws came back, he wanted to cry As he put on the warm shoes and gloves He thought

The next morning he found Warm boots near by The feelings in his Paws came back, he wanted to cry As he put on the warm shoes and gloves He thought How lucky to have found this safe and warm resting spot

How lucky to have found this safe and warm home

How lucky to have found this safe and warm home Yet he knew he wasn’t all alone

How lucky to have found this safe and warm home Yet he knew he wasn’t all alone His belly was hungry he knew he needed to find

How lucky to have found this safe and warm home Yet he knew he wasn’t all alone His belly was hungry he knew he needed to find Something to eat , drink, and ease his troubled mind

The dog jumped out of a box near by and quickly ran

The dog jumped out of a box near by and quickly ran Curious he looked inside and found many tuna cans

The dog jumped out of a box near by and quickly ran Curious he looked inside and found many tuna cans So he opened one and put the rest in a nearby sack

The dog jumped out of a box near by and quickly ran Curious he looked inside and found many tuna cans So he opened one and put the rest in a nearby sack Said" I am ready to leave I must be heading back"

He thanked the Lord for the blessings he had found

He thanked the Lord for the blessings he had found And prayed to find his way back to his home town

He thanked the Lord for the blessings he had found And prayed to find his way back to his home town With boots, and gloves he knew he had to go

He thanked the Lord for the blessings he had found And prayed to find his way back to his home town With boots, and gloves he knew he had to go Down the path he followed footprints in the snow

It was as if the footprints knew the path he needed to find

It was as if the footprints knew the path he needed to find For after a few miles he found the precious familiar sign

It was as if the footprints knew the path he needed to find For after a few miles he found the precious familiar sign Three miles to Heaven, a place he called his loving home

It was as if the footprints knew the path he needed to find For after a few miles he found the precious familiar sign Three miles to Heaven a place he called his loving home Footprints of a stuffed Angel you see, he did not walk alone

The house did not exist Maybe it was too hard to find

But if you believe in stuffed Angels then you can ease your mind
