Chorus:
There’s too many angels in Heaven
The angels said what can we do
The Lord said send them back to their loved ones
Pick a number up to 32

So they send them back 32 angels
To those who are feeling so blue
Now there’s 32 angels among us
And are now living with you

Chorus

God don’t need any more angels
Up where the skies are so blue
He wants them to live among us
In this land he made for you

Chorus

It's hard to understand this message
With a heart so broken in two
Why’d he pick these 32 angels
The reason is God loves you

Chorus

So be happy, be strong, be faithful
And help someone as God helped you
Cause someday he may pick a number
And the number may be you

There’s too many angels in Heaven
The angels said what can we do
