The Angels Are Looking on Me!

Like Ja­cob in his Be­thel rest

The an­gels are look­ing on me;

They watch my pil­low—I am blest

The an­gels are look­ing on me.

All night

all night

The an­gels are look­ing on me;

All night

all night

The an­gels are look­ing on me.

Each night I lay me down to sleep

The an­gels are look­ing on me;

I know I’m safe

for an­gels keep

The an­gels are look­ing on me.

And when I wake

new toils to meet

The an­gels are looking on me;

God’s pre­sence makes my joy com­plete

The an­gels are look­ing on me.

A pil­grim to the heav’n­ly land

The an­gels are look­ing on me;

My steps are kept by God’s com­mand

The an­gels are look­ing on me.

And till I reach my home at last

The an­gels are look­ing on me;

With ev­ery tear and tri­al past

The an­gels are look­ing on me.
