Have you ever thought of Angels
Watching over you at night?
Have you asked for their protection
At the early morning light?
Have you heard a word of caution
FaIling softly on your ear?
Or in times of sudden danger,
Have you sensed them drawing near?
Have you almost heard their footsteps
At the closing of the day,
When your heart communed with Jesus
And your burdens slipped away?
Though unseen, they're always ready
To respond to God's command --
Messengers come down from Heaven,
Sent to lead us by the hand.
