Guardian angel,\nFrom heaven so bright,\nWatching beside me,\nTo lead me aright,\nFold thy wings round me,\nO guard me with love,\nSoftly sing songs to me,\nOf heav’n above.\nBeautiful angel,\nMy guardian so mild,\nTenderly guide me,\nFor I am thy child.\n2. Angel so holy,\nWhom God sends to me,\nSinful and lowly,\nMy guardian to be.\nWilt thou not cherish\nThe child of thy care?\nLet me not perish,\nMy trust is thy prayer.\n3. O may I never,\n1 1 0\nForget thou art near;\nBut keep me for ever,\nIn love and in fear,\nWaking and sleeping,\nIn labour and rest,\nIn thy sweet keeping,\nMy life shall be blest.
