 Angel Band  

F                Bb      F                C7     F
My latest sun is sinking fast, my race is nearly run
F                   Bb      F                C7      F
My strongest trials now are past, my triumph has begun

C7       F          C7        F        F7
Oh, come Angel Band come and around me stand
   Bb                   F                      C7       F7
Oh bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
   Bb                   F                      C7       F
Oh bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home

F                        Bb       F             C7   F
Whose blood now cleanses from all sin and gives me victory

C7       F          C7        F        F7
Oh, come Angel Band come and around me stand

Oh bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
