V1: The side of the road, the dark of the night
She walked in the cold, no exit in sight
Car out of gas, maybe looking for help
Don’t get involved, I told myself
And I drove by and went on my way
Inside of my head the excuses began to play
But as I know now, and I knew then
None of them justified
Another perfect opportunity
Did I turn my back on you in your time of need
Please forgive me
CH1: Put me in the right place at the right time
With the right heart, and the right line
Lord I am here ready to be your angel
You gave me life, you set me free
Nothing I do you haven’t already done for me
Banish my fear, while I am here, I want to be
Your angel
Your angel
V2: I don’t understand what makes us afraid
As we walk through this human mess we’ve made
We quickly forget after the fact
All of the hands that have lifted us
But we are the light set on the hill
If we don’t help out maybe nobody will
How can we sit in comfort here
While they are suffering
If I should die while doing what is right
Could there be a more perfect ending to my life
For Your glory
CH2: Put me in the right place at the right time
With the right heart, and the right line
Lord I am here ready to be your angel
You gave me life, you set me free
Nothing I do you haven’t already done for me
Banish my fear, while I am here, I want to be
Your angel
Your angel
Comfort, Shelter, Teaching, Love
Counsel, Mercy, Clothing, Hope
Rescue, Patience, Your Word, Food
Prayer, Forgiveness, Guidance, Time
Put me in the right place at the right time
With the right heart, and the right line
Lord I am here ready to be your angel
You gave me life, you set me free
Nothing I do you haven’t already done for me
Banish my fear, while I am here, I want to be
Your angel
Anyplace is the right place
Anytime is the right time
