He will tell you he’s no hero
“just doing my job is all”
But to this Angel he is special
Because he answered the call
He is a beloved son
Fighting far from home
As his mother weeps alone
Waiting for the phone
He is an ordinary worker,
An accountant, fireman, cop
And his colleagues watch the mail
For word on when he’s coming home
He is an ordinary husband
With a wife who sleeps alone
She reaches for her sweetheart
Although he’s far from home
He is an ordinary daddy
Missing his children’s smiles
Not seeing the first bike ride
Or kiss their bleeding knees
But as this Angel can tell you
This is NO ordinary man
Oh he is indeed so special
You can believe this – yes you can
This Angel listens to his cries
This is NO ordinary man
He cries to hold his loved ones
Instead he holds a gun
This special man away from home
The love, the joy, the peace
And the Angel watches over him
As he cries himself to sleep
This special man may tell you
If you really care to hear
Of all he’s done On your behalf
So YOU can sleep in peace.
He calls upon the Angels
And is too sad to see us there
He feels alone, abandoned
Thinking no–one cares.
This is NO ordinary man
Although he may look so to you
To his loved ones he is special
And his Angels know this too
This is no ordinary man
He needs all our prayers
To hold, and support him
In his mission, do you dare?
For God, and all the Angels
Always answer this man’s call
He is no ordinary man, he is a son
A husband, dad.
