Summary/Abstract: This article showed the popularity of a motive of an angel in Polish and Latin songs of the Catholic Church. Lyrics of these songs often come from episodes of the Holy Bible and speak about a special angel – a guardian from God. Angels are described with a melody: raising (the angel goes to God), falling (the angel descends from God to people), repetition notes (prayer), bow (angels which are near everybody). Every song shows an angels mission in the world through the lyrics and the melody.
