He Saw The Angel

Lyrics

Numbers twenty two,
verses thirty one through thirty three

Then the LORD
opened the eyes
of Balaam,
and he saw
the angel
of the LORD
standing in the way,
and his sword
drawn in his hand:
and he bowed down
his head,
and fell flat
on his face.

And the angel
of the LORD
said unto him,
Wherefore hast thou
smitten thine ass
these three times?
behold,
I went out
to withstand thee,
because thy way
is perverse
before me:

And the ass
saw me,
and turned
from me
these three times:
unless she had
turned from me,
surely now also
I had slain thee,
and saved her alive.

Numbers chapter twenty two,
verses thirty one through thirty three

Then the LORD
opened the eyes
of Balaam,
and he saw
the angel
of the LORD
standing in the way,
and his sword
drawn in his hand:
and he bowed down
his head,
and fell flat
on his face.

And the angel
of the LORD
said unto him,
Wherefore hast thou
smitten thine ass
these three times?
behold,
I went out
to withstand thee,
because thy way
is perverse
before me:

And the ass
saw me,
and turned
from me
these three times:
unless she had
turned from me,
surely now also
I had slain thee,
and saved her alive.
