Jesus Was a Cross Maker

Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down fly in low for me

One time I trusted a stranger

'Cause I heard his sweet song

And it was gently enticing me

Though there was something wrong

But when I turned, he was gone

Blinding me, his song remains, reminding me

He's a bandit and a heart breaker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down fly in low for me

He wages war with the devil

A pistol by his side

And though he chases him out windows

And 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 heart breaker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Sweet silver angels over the sea

Please come down fly in low for me

I heard the thunder come rumbling

The light never looked so dim

I see the junction get nearer

And danger is in the wind

And either road's looking grim

Hiding me, earthly desire dividing me

He's 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 fly in low for me

One time I trusted a stranger

'Cause I heard his sweet song

And it was gently enticing me

Though there was something wrong

But when I turned, he was gone

Blinding me, his song remains, reminding me

He's a bandit and a heart breaker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Yes, Jesus was a cross maker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Yes, Jesus was a cross maker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Yes, Jesus was a cross maker

Oh, but Jesus was a cross maker

Yes, Jesus was a cross maker
