35MM: A Musical Exhibition - The Seraph Lyrics
THE SINNER:
I saw a devil before me, and he took me by the face
I walked inside his shadow and kept apace
I filled my life with sin enough for the world around;
Drowned, 'till by an Angel Seraph I was found
The Angel leads me forward, he watches as I sleep
The Angel thinks I've got some kind of soul to keep
I feel him rest his Seraph head, warm, against my chest
Don't know why it should be, but by the Angel, I am blessed
And now that devil's behind me, hoping I'll trip and fall
But the Seraph remains to remind me I can have a higher call
I journey toward a goodness that he exemplifies
Wise and cool and clear and human in disguise
The Angel leads me onward, he watches as I sleep
The Angel thinks I've got some kind of soul to keep
I feel him rest his Seraph head, warm, against my chest
Don't know why it should be, but by the Angel, I am blessed
I don't believe in God. I think Jesus was just a man
But with you in my life, I feel part of some heavenly plan
You've shown me there is faith without fear or regret;
You are a love as close to Heaven as I'll get
THE SINNER & THE SAVIOR:
So Angel, lead me onward and hold watch as I sleep
I don't know why you think I've got a soul to keep
And when you lay your hallow'd head, warm, against my chest
Light divine, highest Angel mine, somehow
I'll be blessed
THE SINNER:
I'll be blessed
THE SAVIOR:
Oh
HE & SHE:
No, I don't deserve you
But please have faith in me
THE SINNER:
I'll be blessed
THE SAVIOR:
Happy, happy
Baby, I'm in love with you
HE & SHE:
I'm working to be worthy, Angel...
THE SINNER:
I'll be blessed
THE SAVIOR:
You make me happy all the time.
HE & SHE:
You make me happy all the time
