The Guardian Prayer

Favor has found me,
Angels are around me,
Your Light does surround me.

I am guarded, I am safe.
I am sheltered in the Secret Place.

Tho' my flesh dwells here below,
Still I abide under Your divine shadow.

I lean on Thee each and every hour,
Trusting in Thy supernatural power.

You make Your angels a flaming fire.
They lift me up, they carry me higher
Above and beyond my temporal distress,
Bringing Heaven's peace to all my stress,
Scattering fear, worry and all the rest.
Yes I believe! Yes I am blessed!

Through the fog of fallen Earth,
Amidst this world's spiritual dearth,
Christ has redeemed me from every curse.
In Him there's new hope, new birth.

At His feet the angels bow down,
Wings pointing to His glorious crown.

My fear is gone,
My faith is sparked.
The living Word
Lives big in my heart.

Out with doubt -
Lord, I believe
That angels unseen
Are ministering to me.

Amen.
