Angels came and took care of Jesus (Matthew 4:11; NLT).
1. Angel of the hour, I thank you
For the smile you offer me,
Prompting me to recognise
That God is here in all I see.
2. Angel of the day, I thank you
For your greeting in the street,
Causing me to recollect
That God is here in all I meet.
3. Angel of the month, I thank you
For your guidance when I stray,
Urging me to trust that God
Is with me on this narrow way.
4. Angel of the year, I thank you,
For you save me when I fall,
And you rescue me from danger:
God is in you most of all.
5. Angels, I am truly thankful –
You are sent by God’s own hand,
Helping me through this long exile,
Till I reach his Promised Land.
