When she saw her baby boy
She cried, "No, no, no
This can't be my pride and joy"
She cried, "No, no, no"
Doctor said he could live for years
As the father fought back his tears
He would grow but always be a child
She cried, "No, no, no"
So many children like this
Hidden by those who don't understand
Modern-day mortals can see
They're God's angels
The children of light
All God's angels
They belong to the ages
All God's angels
Watching over the children
Children of light
When she held her baby child
She was oh-so cold
Through it all, she never smiled
She was oh-so cold
She cried out,
"Oh, dear God, why me?
Are you testing my loyalty?
The [?] is a part of me"
Oh, she cried, "No, no, no"
So many children like this
Hidden by those who don't understand
Modern-day mortals can see
They're God's angels
The children of light
All God's angels
They belong to the ages
All God's angels
Watching over the children
Children of light
All God's angels
All God's angels
All God's angels
They belong to the ages
All God's angels
Watching over the children
Children of light
The children of light
They're God's angels
