Tune: Darwall's 148th
('Ye holy angels bright')
********
You angels bold and strong
Assist us all days long
You be more powerful
Than human mortals all
You ministers, you flames of fire
Who do God's will, not idle hire
Protect us from all ill
Who do God's biddings still
And praise Him in your place
Assured of His good grace
Come strengthen, help, our daily needs
With good Shepherd, who each tends, feeds
Illuminate minds, hearts
And inspire us, all parts
To travel on while here
'Til Christ He shall appear
To take redeemed ones, they His Bride
With Him for e'er they shall reside
Invisible army
Human eyes might not see
But hosts of angels live
And true worship do give
Unto the Lord, He King of Kings
And Lord of Lords, to Him all sings
