Sweet silver angels
over the sea
Please come down fly
in 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
But when I turned
he was gone
Blinding me his song
remains reminding me
He's a bandit and
a heart breaker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Sweet silver angels
over the sea
Please come down fly
in low for me
He wages war
with the devil
A pistol by his side
And though he chases
him out windows
And won't give him
a place to hide
He keeps his door
open wide
Fighting him he lights
a lamp inviting him
He's a bandit and
a heart breaker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Sweet silver angels
over the sea
Please come down fly
in low for me
I heard the thunder
come rumbling
The light never
looked so dim
I see the junction
get nearer
And danger is
in the wind
And either road's
looking grim
Hiding me earthly
desire dividing me
He's a bandit and
a heart breaker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Yes Jesus was
a cross maker
Sweet silver angels
over the sea
Please come down fly
in 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
But when I turned
he was gone
Blinding me his song
remains reminding me
He's a bandit and
a heart breaker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Yes Jesus was
a cross maker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Yes Jesus was
a cross maker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Yes Jesus was
a cross maker
Oh but Jesus was
a cross maker
Yes Jesus was
a cross maker
