She was counting her change in the line
At the counter of the grocery store
Every penny, every nickel she could find
But she still comes up short
Just a single mom doing the best that she can,
When a stranger slips a twenty in the palm of her hand.
She turns around to thank him
But he's already disappeared out the door

Just because God doesn't part the sea
Pull you from the fire
Doesn't mean that He's not there
His fingerprints are everywhere

When the mountain that you're climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting makes you feel so all alone
It doesn't mean you're on your own
Cause when you need it most
The world is full of ordinary angels

He just got back from a second tour of duty six months ago
When he closes his eyes, he's still fighting
That fright right here at home
And when the nightmares come in the dead of the night
His little boy runs in and turns on the light
He says, Daddy don't you worry
As he reaches up to kiss him on tippy toes

Just because God doesn't part the sea
Pull you from the fire
Doesn't mean that He's not there
His fingerprints are everywhere

When the mountain that you're climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting makes you feel so all alone
It doesn't mean you're on your own
Cause when you need it most
The world is full of ordinary angels
Ordinary angels

When the mountain that you're climbing seems so tall
And the battle that you're fighting makes you feel so all alone
It doesn't mean you're on your own
When you need it most
The world is full of ordinary angels
Ordinary angels
