Angels Watching Over Me- Traditional Song Lyrics Performed by Rachel Rambach
All night, all day.
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day.
Angels watching over me.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
Angels watching over me.
Bless my friends and my family.
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Bless those people who take care of me.
Angels watching over me.
Angels watching all through the night.
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Keep me safe until the morning light.
Angels watching over me.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me.
Sun is a-setting in the West;
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
Sleep my child, take your rest;
Angels watching over me.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
Angels watching over me.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me, my Lord.
All night, all day,
Angels watching over me.

All Night, All Day,
The Angels, Keep A Watching Over Me (My Lord)
All Night, All Day,
The Angels, Keep A Watching, Over Me
You Can Accuse Me,
You Can Even Abuse Me,
You Can Drive Me From The Cold
(The Angels, Keep Watching, Over Me)
You, You Can Crucify This Old Body,
Oh, But You Can Not, You Can't Touch
My Soul...
(Yes, The Angels Keep Watching... Over Me.)
I Haven't ... Been To Heaven
But... I'm Surely, I'm Surely
On My Way... Oh, (Background)
I Am Walking... With My Jesus
Every Night... And Every Day..
(Yes, The Angels, Keep Watching... Over Me.)
In The Midnight, When I Get In Trouble
When I Lay, Me Down To Sleep, Oh....
(The Angels, Keep Watching,... Over Me)
I Don't Wonder, And I Don't Have To Worry,
For I Know The Lord, My Soul He'll Keep.
(The Angels, Keep Watching... Over Me)
