Bear me up on wings of angels
Let me hear the choir sing
Let me see the facets of the chair of Him
Lift me up on wings of angels
Three or four or more
And place me in my weakness
Perfect at your door
[Chorus]
Jesus, I’m tryin’ to get to you
Jesus, I’m tryin’ to come home
Bear me up on wings of angels
Lest I cast my foot against a stone
Well, the world keeps flyin’ around
And I’m almost outta sight
I keep slippin’ into hell
I can’t seem to get it right
Bear me up on wings of angels
I might make it, I might not
But Jesus, I’m givin’ it all I’ve got
[Chorus]

[Chorus]
Lord have mercy on me
Was the kneeling drunkard’s plea
And as he knelt there on the ground
I know that God in heaven looked down
I went down by an old country church
I saw the drunkard stagger and lurch
And as he reached his mother’s grave
I saw the drunkard kneel and pray
[Chorus]
Bring my darling boy to me
Was his mother’s dying plea
And as he staggered through the gate
A lassie came just one day too late
Three years have passed since she went away
Her son is sleeping beside her today
And I know that in heaven his mother he’ll see
For God has heard the drunkard’s plea
[Chorus]
