The Lord looked down at Patty

And said "We need to talk"

Your grandma needs some company

And Checkers needs a walk.



Patty pleaded "I’m not ready Lord"

There are things I’ve not yet done

And who’ll be here to care for

My husband and my sons?



God said "My dear Patty"

Your worries I will cease

I promise it will all work out

And you will be at peace



I know that your main worry

Concerns your husband Jim

So I’ll send a guardian angel

Who will watch over him



Your youngest son needs guidance

So to earth from here in Heaven

I’ll send strength to your family

And they will care for Kevin.



Your oldest, James, will be just fine

For him I’ve planned a life

Of happiness and blessings

With Jaime as his wife



You’re just the kind of person

I can trust with many tasks

And if you ever need me

All you have to do is ask



For Patty dear I have a plan

To complete it I need you

You will be my messenger

I have much for you to do.









There are families who need you

Their hearts are bruised and sore

For they are sick with worry

About loved ones in the war



There are hundreds of sick children

Whose parents by their side

Will need you on their shoulders

You must be their guide.



I’ve watched you run your business

With skill and loving care

I’ve watched you raise your children

With love beyond compare



I know that you’ll be perfect

For all that I need done

I asked your grandma what she thought

She said that you’re the one



She just can’t wait to see you

She’ll be waiting here tonight

To put her arms around you

And hold you oh so tight.



Please don’t worry about your family

I’ll send signs to help them see

That you’re no longer suffering

And you’re happy here with me



In summer I’ll send breezes

In Fall, the changing leaves

To let them know that you’re okay

I know they will believe



In Springtime I’ll send raindrops

To make the flowers grow

And I’ll coat the world with magic

With the winters pure white snow



And when your life is over

On your last earthly day

I’ll send a brilliant sunset

To let them know you’ve found your way



And one last thing before you leave

I must Thank your mom and dad

For they are giving back to me

The most precious gift they ever had



Now lets look back and have a look

At all the things we’ve done

Your work on earth is finished

But in Heaven, it’s just begun



So come to me dear Patty

You’d like to stay that’s true

But I need another angel

And I have chosen YOU!
