"Angel Band" lyrics - THE CARTER FAMILY

My latest sun is sinking fast
My race is nearly run
My strongest trials now are past
My triumph is begun

O come, angel band
Come and around me stand
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home

[Instrumental break]

O bear my longing heart to him
Who bled and died for me
Where blood now cleanses from all sin
And gives me victory

O come, angel band
Come and around me stand
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home

[Instrumental break]

I've almost gained my heavenly home
My spirit loudly sings
The Holy one before me comes
I hear the noise of wings

O come, angel band
Come and around me stand
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home
O bear me away on your snowy wings
To my immortal home
