Angels arise
As night must fall
And radiant eyes
Stare down on us all

If the powers that be
Be beyond our call
Then angels arise
As the night must surely fall

And for every pit of darkness,
There's a light so pure divine
And I ask you to protect me
From those gasps and shudders and those shivers down my spine

Angels arise
As night must fall
And all knowing eyes
Stare down on us all

If the powers that be
Be beyond our call
Then angels arise
As the night must surely fall
