By Matthew James Kovich
Blessed are the holy ones,
the men who live on high;
they are the messengers of God,
True devotees of Christ.
Whether lowly angel class,
or archangels they be;
or up the nine-stepped stairway
known as Heavens hierarchy.
In Arab they are Mala’ikah,
in Greek the angelos;
but to us they’re known as angels,
the divine Heavenly Host.
