lyrics version 1
Sweet silver an'
lyrics version 2
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
And when I turned he was gone
Blinding me his song remains reminding me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Yes, Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
He wages war with the devil when the light becomes dim
And when the junction gets nearer and danger is in the wind
And either road is looking grim
Frightening me I see my fear dividing me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Ooh ooh ooh
Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
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
And when I turned he was gone
Blinding me his song remains reminding me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Yes, Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
He wages war with the devil when the light becomes dim
And when the junction gets nearer and danger is in the wind
And either road is looking grim
Frightening me I see my fear dividing me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh but Jesus was a cross maker
Ooh ooh ooh
Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flying low for me
