Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
Cause I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticing me
Though there was something wrong
When I turned he was gone
Blinding me his song remains reminding me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
He wages war with the devil a pistol by his side
And though he chases him out of window
He won't give him a place to hide
Keeps his door open wide
Fighting him he lights a lamp inviting him in
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
I hear the thunder come rumbling
The light never looked so dim
Though the junction gets nearer and danger's in the wind
Neither road is looking grim
Hiding me I flee desire's dividing me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
Cause I heard his sweet song
It was gently enticing me
Though there was something wrong
When I turned he was gone
Blinding me his song remains reminding me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
