Precious Angel

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 theres spiritual warfare and flesh and blood breaking down

Ya either got faith or ya got unbelief and there ain't no neutral ground

The enemy is subtle, how be it we are so 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

Ya know I just couldnt 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, 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, lemme tell you about a vision 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 about mohammed

In the same 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

Ya know I just couldnt 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 theres 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

Ya know I just couldnt make it by myself

i'm a little too blind to see
