491. “The Angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.”
1
They that fear the Lord on highFind a helper ever nigh!
God supports them with his hand;
Watchful angels near them stand!
2
While to heaven our feet are bound,Evil spirits hover round;
Enemies, by night and day,
Strive to make our souls their prey!
3
With such foes, so strong and bold,How can we the conflict hold?
Lord! do thou our heads defend!
Give us strength, and succour send!
394
4
All our enemies confound!Let thy angels still surround!
Prone to fall, our refuge be!
May our faith be strong in thee!
5
O, our Omnipresent Friend!Guide us, guard us, to the end!
And, at death, for Jesus' sake,
To thyself our spirits take!
