They, who protect us

Silent the sound of the angels on call
Who watch and who wait to catch all who fall
Gentle the touch of their wings on our face
Whenever they bring us some special grace

They who protect us are so near and so far
Hiding their glory they shine like a star
Quicker than lightening yet slower to leave
They whisper inside us and help us believe

Angels are companions who never depart
Their love is forever and warms every heart
Blessed the being who passes each day
Speaking to angels without great display
