ANGELS OF HEAVEN
Text and tune: Brother Ephraim Frost
Whitewater, Ohio, 1872

The angels of heaven are marching around
the borders of Zion's holy ground.
Their music harmonious how it doth ring,
and this is the heavenly song they sing.

Holy, holy, holiness unto the Lord.
Love ye, love ye, love ye one another.
