Precious Angel Lyrics

Precious angel Under the sun How was I to know You'd be the one
To show me I was blinded To show me I was gone How weak was the foundation I was standing upon?
Now there's spiritual warfare Flesh and blood breaking down You either got faith or you got unbelief And there ain't no neutral ground
The enemy is subtle How be it we're deceived When the truths in our hearts And we still don't believe?
Shine your light Shine your light on me Shine your light Shine your light on me
Shine your light Shine your light on me You know I just couldn't make it by myself I'm a little too blind to see
My so-called friends Have fallen under a spell They look me squarely in the eye And they say, "Well, all is well"
Can they imagine the darkness That will fall from on high When men will beg God to kill them And they won't be able to die?
Sister, let me tell you About a vision that I saw You were drawing water for your husband You were suffering under the law
You were telling him about Buddha You were telling him 'bout Mohamed in one breath You never mentioned one time the man who came And died a criminals death
Shine your light Shine your light on me Shine your light Shine your light on me
Shine your light Shine your light on me You know I just couldn't make it by myself I'm a little too blind to see
Precious angel You believe me when I say What God has given to us No man can take away
We are covered in blood, girl You know our forefathers were slaves Let us hope they've found mercy In their bone-filled graves
You're the queen of my flesh, girl You're my woman, you're my delight You're the lamp of my soul, girl And you touch up the night
But there's violence in the eyes, girl So let us not be enticed On the way out of Egypt, through Ethiopia To the judgment hall of Christ
Shine your light Shine your light on me Shine your light Shine your light on me
Shine your light Shine your light on me You know I just couldn't make it by myself I'm a little too blind to see
Shine your light Shine your light on me Shine your light Shine your light on me ...
