#198 - Around the Throne of God a Band Of glorious angels ever stand; Bright things they see, sweet harps they hold, And on their head are crowns of gold.

#198 - Around the Throne of God a Band [2] Some wait around him, ready still To sing his praise and do his will, And some, when he commands them, go To guard his servants here below.

#198 - Around the Throne of God a Band [3] Lord, give your angels ev'ry day Command to guide us on our way, And bid them ev'ry evening keep Their watch around us while we sleep.

#198 - Around the Throne of God a Band [4] Then shall no wicked thing draw near To do us harm or cause us fear, And we shall live, when life is past, With angels round your throne at last.
