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 Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'd wake the sweetest music, And praise him day and night. 2 I never should 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 thousand I'd praise him 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 Saviour, when I languish, And lay me down to die, O send a shining angel To bear me to the sky. 4 O! there I'll be an angel, And with the angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand: And therefore my Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'll join the heavenly music, And praise him day and night. | The Cyber Hymnal #8906 The Little Minstrel: a collection of songs and music, with lessons of instruction, mathematically arranged plan of notation #61 (1867) The New Sabbath School Hosanna: enlarged and improved: a choice collection of popular hymns and tunes, original and selected: for the Sunday school and the family circle... #120a (1870) Linden Harp: a rare collection of popular melodies adapted to sacred and moral songs, original and selected.
