Angel (Featuring Regina Belle) - Album Version (Edited)

What good is it
 (Hey, God loves you, yes he does)
 For a man to gain the world
 Yet lose his own soul in the process?
 (Set your heart right with him)
 I wonder
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 I'm callin' out to you, Lord, because I need your help
 See, once again I'm havin' difficulty savin' myself
 Behavin' myself, you told me what to do, and I do it
 But every and now and then it gets a little harder to go through it
 Losin' friends day by day
 I'm in so much pain when I'm here, Lord, please take me away!
 I put you here to do a job, and your work ain't done
 To live is to suffer, but you're still my son
 And there will be a time when you shine as bright as the stars
 But there won't be a his or hers, just ours
 Then you'll see what I've been tryin' to show you all these years
 Do the right thing, 'cause after the tears come the cheers
 I will, my Lord, with my heart and my soul
 That's gonna be how I roll, from now until I mold
 Lead and I'll follow, you take away the sorrow
 I'ma sleep on what you said and holla back tomorrow
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 I want you to know, Lord, that for what you given me I'm thankful
 Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, I'm grateful
 You gave us power in our words, so I think before I speak
 And that way when I speak, they know I'm here to teach
 Can't tell 'em nothin' wrong, 'cause I love 'em too much
 I reach a lot of people, and Lord, I'm lovin' the touch
 But deep inside, I've got somethin' that's workin' against
 Everything I know is right, what I know makes sense
 That's when you must fight harder than you've ever fought before
 'Cause what you've got goin' on inside you is a war
 Between good and evil, be careful of those who wanna be you
 They smile but are not really happy when they see you
 Be careful of the ones that always wanna get you high
 'Cause when the time comes, that one'll let you die
 Listen to me! I'm here, but I can only help you
 If you want me to help, what do you want for yourself?
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 You're alright with him
 I said you're alright with him
 My Lord, my savior, don't judge my behavior, but instead
 Take what's in my heart and put it in my head
 See, I guess I really never knew how proud I made you
 My life is yours, my soul I gave you
 I don't know if I'll do good enough (He's by your side)
 And we both know the hood is rough (right by your side)
 Sometimes I don't know what to do (X, dry your eyes!)
 But I know what I gotta do (it'll be alright)
 You keep givin' me the word, and I'll put it to song
 Talk to me, I'll talk to them, and we can't go wrong
 This is the start of somethin' strong
 And this is just the start of it
 Praises to you, my Lord, for lettin' me be a part of it
 I was that kid that, been there, did that
 Became ashamed so I hid that, but ain't no longer with that
 Use me as an example, if I can do it, then they can too
 With the Lord behind us, there ain't nothin' that we can't do
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him (the light with him)
 'Cause you're alright with him ('cause he loves you)
 I said you're alright with him
 I know you've never seen him
 But don't fight with him
 You're gonna make it through the night
 To the light with him
 'Cause you're alright with him ('cause he loves you)
 I said you're alright with him
 He's by your side
 Right by your side
 X, dry your eyes!
 'Cause it'll be alright
 Yeah, he's by your side
 Right by your side
 X, dry your eyes!
 'Cause, it's gonna be alright
 Yeah yeah, yes it is!
