Isaiah 112 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD—

Isaiah 11 6 The wolf will live with the lamb,

the leopard will lie down with the goat,

the calf and the lion and the yearling together;

and a little child will lead them.

7 The cow will feed with the bear,

their young will lie down together,

and the lion will eat straw like the ox.

8 The infant will play near the hole of the cobra,

and the young child put his hand into the viper’s nest.

9 They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain,

for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD

as the waters cover the sea.

10 In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples;

the nations will rally to him, and his place of rest will be glorious.

Guardian angels around my bed Joining me in my prayers. They hush the shadows when they

dance about. They shoo away the bears.

Guardian angels to comfort me, if I wake in the night. They gather all my dreams, their halos are my light. They dry my tears if I should weep, they tuck me in, they rouse me from

my sleep.

Guardian angels around my bed standing by till I rise.

There's one with shining wings that holds my hand and shows me Paradise.
