Angels Round About

Words by Marvin K. Gardner

Music by Vanja Y. Watkins

With expression

1. My Savior, wilt Thou go before my face?

Wilt Thou go before my face?

Be on my right hand, be on my left hand,

And fill my heart with peace, Thy love’s embrace.

Send angels round about to bear me up.

Send angels round about to bear me up.

2. My Savior, doubt and darkness flee Thy face.

Doubt and darkness flee Thy face.

My hopes grow brighter, my burdens lighter.

Through troubled hours I feel Thy love’s embrace

And angels round about to bear me up,

And angels round about to bear me up.

3. My Savior, step by step I’ll seek Thy face,

Step by step I’ll seek Thy face,

My prayers ascending, my praise unending.

Forever may I feel Thy love’s embrace

And angels round about to bear me up,

And angels round about to bear me up.
