Angels (Amy Grant Song)

"Angels" is a 1984 song by Christian singer Amy Grant, from her album Straight Ahead. It won the 1985 Grammy Award for Best Gospel Vocal Performance, Female.

The song begins with an account of Peter's capture by Herod's guards in the Bible, and goes on to describe how God has His angels watching over believers, to guide and protect them in times of fear, doubt, confusion, or temptation. The song is noted for its inspirational lyrics, especially the first verse.

    “The guided missiles,
    The black-and-white angels follow each quirk and jink of

    Freeze to the ground, or leap to head off a straggler”
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    “I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their stringent execution.”
