This classic American gospel standard is based on the poem, “My Latest Sun Is Sinking Fast,” by Jefferson Hascall. It was adapted and first published as a song by J. W. Dadmun in his tunebook The Melodeon in 1860. However, William Batchelder Bradbury’s version, published in Bradbury’s Golden Show...
My latest sun is sinking fast
My race has 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 snow white wings to my immortal home
O bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
O bear my longing heart to Him
Who bled and died for me
Whose 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 snow white wings to my immortal home
O bear me away on your snow white wings to my immortal home
Angel Band was written by William Bradbury & Jefferson Hascall.
Angel Band was produced by Ralph Stanley.
