I WANT TO BE AN ANGEL
I want to be an angel
Hymnal: The Little Minstrel #61 (1867) Lyrics: 1 I want to be an angel,
And with the angels stand,
A crown upon my forehead,
A harp within my hand;
There right before my Savior,
So glorious and so bright,
I'd wake the sweetest music,
And praise him day and night.
2 I never would be weary,
Nor ever shed a tear,
Nor ever know a sorrow,
Nor ever feel a fear;
But blessed, pure, and holy,
I'd dwell in Jesus' sight,
And with ten thousand thousands
Praise him both day and night.
3 I know I'm weak and sinful,
But Jesus will forgive,
For many little children
Have gone to heaven to live;
Dear Savior, when I languish,
And lay me down to die,
O! send a shining angel,
And bear me to the skies.
4 O, there I'll be an angel,
And with the angels stand,
A crown upon my forehead,
A harp within my hand;
And there, before my Savior,
So glorious and so bright,
I'll join the heavenly music,
And praise him day and night. Languages: English Tune Title: [I want to be an angel]
