The Choir Album: Love Songs & Prayers Track: Merciful Eyes
Merciful Eyes Lyrics
Demon of love Seraph of treason Heaven above Show me the reason Was the ruler of darkness the angel of light Did I wake up one morning a creature of night Can a justified sinner discern wrong from right
CHORUS When I turn From your face Render mercy and grace Red blood rain From the sky God have merciful eyes Merciful eyes
Innoncent tears Day of the dancer Heaven come near Whisper the answer Did the dead man arise when she entered the room Did I smell love decaying and call it perfume Should a justified man know the grave from the womb
CHORUS
Swear by the Ghost Promises broken Baby come close Sorry words spoken Would the Spirit of Truth make a liar understand If I reach for the blue with my face in the sand Could a justified slave call himself a free man
