The Angels Have Charge over Thee

lyricist: Wildie Thayer, 1910
Composer: Henry Gilmour

In time of temp­ta­tion

I hear a sweet voice

So ten­der­ly whis­per to me

Be strong in the Lord

sweet­ly rest on His Word

The an­gels have charge ov­er thee.

The an­gels have charge ov­er thee

To keep thee in all thy ways;

This bless­èd as­sur­ance brings peace to my soul

My heart is o’er­flow­ing with praise.

When tri­als arise

and when dan­ger is near

A light in the dark­ness I see;

This pro­mise so blest bring­eth comfort and rest

The an­gels have charge ov­er thee.

Then rest

sweet­ly rest

on the pro­mise of God

From sin and its pow­er be free;

O be of good cheer

there is no­thing to fear

The an­gels have charge ov­er thee.
