Angels

JOSEPHINE ROBINSON

It may be they come in the morning,It may be they come in the night,It may be they come at the hour,Or come with the waning light;It may be they come when we 're watching,It may be they come while we sleep;But they come, oh, they come from the Father,Who ever His vigil doth keep!
