Jesus was a crossmaker - 2007 remastered version by The Hollies Lyrics
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticin me
Tho there was somethin wrong
But when I turned he was gone
Blindin me, his song remains remindin me
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
He wages war with the devil
A pistol by his side
And tho he chases him out windows
And won't give him a place to hide
He keeps his door open wide
Fightin him he lights a lamp invitin him
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
I heard the thunder come rumblin
The light never looked so dim
I see the junction git nearer
And danger is in the wind
And either roads lookin grim
Hidin me, I flee, desire dividin me
Hes 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 flyin low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticin me
Tho there was somethin wrong
But when I turned he was gone
Blindin me, his song remains remindin me
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
Please come down flyin low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticin me
Tho there was somethin wrong
But when I turned he was gone
Blindin me, his song remains remindin me
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
He wages war with the devil
A pistol by his side
And tho he chases him out windows
And won't give him a place to hide
He keeps his door open wide
Fightin him he lights a lamp invitin him
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
I heard the thunder come rumblin
The light never looked so dim
I see the junction git nearer
And danger is in the wind
And either roads lookin grim
Hidin me, I flee, desire dividin me
Hes 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 flyin low for me
One time I trusted a stranger
'Cuz I heard his sweet song
And it was gently enticin me
Tho there was somethin wrong
But when I turned he was gone
Blindin me, his song remains remindin me
Hes a bandit and a heart breaker
Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker
Sweet silver angels over the sea
Please come down flyin low for me
