"War in heaven"

JANE POLSON SPEARIN

Angels of His Presence

Robert Ellis Key

Michael and Gabriel, angels of the Lord,Invincible in strength, supreme in love,Walking together in divine accord,Acting in unison designed above!Here, where the hosts of evil press and throng,Here, in the tumult of the battle's plan,Sounds the glad message of their triumph song:Victors are they who love both God and man.
