Author: Sigourney Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #975 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The mighty angel, to whose hand
The word of life is given,
Waves his broad wing o'er sea and land,
And, soaring, cleaves the heaven.
2 And say, shall aught oppose his flight,

3 Not till blessed Peace shall spring to birth,
And hated sheathe his sword;
Not till the nations of the earth
Are subject to the Lord. Topics: Reform, Temperance, Etc.; Truth shall Triumph
The mighty angel, to whose hand
