May God Send a Rescue Angel

Away in the dog house, the sad dog does lay

Just wishing to come inside at least for a day

He sits and he watches on the end of his chain

Then slowly he turns to his dog house to pray

Alone in the streets, the stray dog wanders all day

He keeps searching and wanting a soft pillow to lay

He looks all around for someone to play

Then back to his wandering dreams does he pray

Away in the shelter, one more dog comes this way

Unwanted, unloved and just tossed away

He wonders what he did to end up this way

So he joins in the others and in their dreams do they pray

They pray for an angel to show them the way

The way to a new life, a new home to stay

Someone to love them and have time to play

They'll hope and they'll pray til the end of their days

Away in a mill, dogs lay sad in their cage

Day in and day out, with no time to play

Another litter had, another taken away

They're neglected and sick but they continue to pray

They pray for an angel to show them the way

The way to a new life, a new home to stay

Someone to love them and have time to play

They'll hope and they'll pray til the end of their days

Then one day it happens, someone comes their way

And lifts off their sadness and shows them the way

The way to a new life, a new home and love

Their dreams of a Rescue Angel comes to life this day

To all the dogs out there we wish you the same

A home and a family and maybe a new name

May God send a Rescue Angel to come your way

And this is our vigil we'll continue to pray
