Lyrics:
[Verse 1] One day, I saw a man Dressed in rags, with a staff in his hand Begging for a penny to survive How poor a man can be I gave him hospitality A room, a bed, and lots of food to eat [Verse 2] Still, I hear his last few words "I can never return what you've done But heaven will remember and repay" Fifty years had gone since I saw him I was dying and I'd soon be dead Three angels stood in front of my bed [Chorus] The first one, she said to me, "Don't be afraid I'll give you immortality and grace for your soul" The second had eyes of gold, she gave me my wings The third gave all wisdom an angel could bring to me [Refrain] One day, I saw a man Dressed in rags, with a staff in his hand Begging for a penny to survive How poor a man can be I gave him hospitality A room, a bed, and lots of food to eat [Chorus] I joined with my destiny, eternally I knew I was born again, an angel to be A vision beyond my dreams called me, by name So in devotion, I spread my wings To heaven, I'd came to stay
