1219. The angel of the Lord encampeth

1 The angel of the Lord encampeth
Round about us, round about us;
Round about the souls that fear him,
Night and day.

Chorus:
O pillar of fire, pillar of cloud,
Lead me, lead me ev'ry day!
O pillar of fire, pillar of cloud,
Lead me on my heav'nly way!

2 When danger hovers o'er our pathway,
He will hide us, he will hide us,
Safe within the mighty shadow
Of his wing. [Chorus]

3 We'll trust thee as we onward journey,
God of Israel, God of Israel,
Till we reach the land of promise
Just before. [Chorus]
