Lyrics Jesus Was A Crossmaker - 2007 Remastered Version - The Hollies

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
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 crossmaker
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 windows
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 heartbreaker
Oh, but Jesus was a crossmaker
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
I see the junction get nearer
And danger's in the wind
And either road's looking grim
Hiding me, I flee desire's dividing me
He's a bandit and a heartbreaker
Oh, but Jesus was a crossmaker
Yeah, but Jesus was a crossmaker
