"When I Needed An Angel"

This was sent to me today and I had to share! I have included the song and the lyrics as well.


Dear Donate Life Community,



We are delighted to announce that All-4-One, the Grammy Award-winning R&B/pop group renowned for their 1994 classic “I Swear,” has released a new song inspired by organ donors and transplant recipients, “When I Needed An Angel.” The song, from their forthcoming album No Regrets, is now available on iTunes, as you will read in the attached press release.



The group wrote “When I Needed An Angel” after being touched by inspirational stories of people affected by organ and tissue donation. We are truly honored to have made this connection and are certain that once you hear the song it will touch your heart and you will realize that All-4-One has truly delivered an angel to the Donate Life mission!



The members of All-4-One – Jamie, Delious, Tony and Alfred – are proud to support the Donate Life community. “It means the world to us to be able to contribute something outside of our constant prayers to help people receive an extension of life. Every download of ‘When I Needed An Angel’ will inspire someone to become a donor and help the more than 103,000 people now waiting for a life-saving organ transplant.”



All-4-One will generously contribute $.40 cents of each download from iTunes to support our collaborative efforts to inspire the nation to donate life! We encourage all of you to inform your community of this opportunity to support our life-saving mission!

what can i say,
when i can’t find the words to possibly explain
what i’m feeling inside
i tried to believe,
my whole kept faith everyday that passed me by
and then you came in my life
and now i am living proof
of what the gift of pure love can do
when i needed an angel
here was you who made the sacrifice
just in the nick of time
when i needed an angel
i didn’t have to look to the sky
cos you made me realize
that you were right here all the time
(right here all the time)
right here all the time
sometimes i cry
when i think about everything you’ve done for me
and i still can’t believe
that i can live my life
every breath i take i take for you and me
that’s a promise i’ll keep
and each night i think of you
and how your gift of love pulled me through
when i needed an angel
here was you who made the sacrifice
just in the nick of time
when i needed an angel
i didn’t have to look to the sky
cos you made me realize
you were right here all the time
(right here all the time)
right here all the time
baby one day everyone will say
that i wanna be somebody’s angel
and i will tell the world (tell the world)
about this miracle
every moment i’m awake
i’ll give the love you gave
ohhh angel..
when i needed an angel
here was you who made the sacrifice
just in the nick of time
when i needed an angel
i didn’t have to look to the sky
cos you made me realize
that you were right here all the time
you were right here all the time
