Wind is blowing
And it’s blowing through my mind
Spirits they been tellin’ me
That it’s all come down to time
‘Cause staying in this world now
Well it ain’t no plan of mine
‘Cause she’s raped and left here dying
And they called me for the crime

Is that the cry of an angel
Or the cry of a woman
Such a lonely sound
I lost my suit to a trump card
I lost my soul to the trouble
Keeps pullin’ me down

Steppin’ stones
Take me to the house of the Mojo Man
Because they painted me my future
In Bayou dirt and Desert sand
Ain’t no open blue horizons
Choirs singing hymns
In joyous happy praise
‘Cause I feel my chair shaking
And the light’s begun to wane
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Is that the cry of an angel
Or the cry of a woman
Such a lonely sound
I lost my suit to a trump card
I lost my soul to the trouble
Keeps pullin’ me down
Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah

(chorus)

Fly me on the wings of an angel
Bathe me in the sea of joy
Take me from all this world of turmoil
Deliver me, deliver me
Redemption, redemption

(Solo)

(Chorus)

Fly me on the wings of an angel
Bathe me in the sea of joy
Take me from all this world of turmoil
Deliver me, deliver me
Redemption, redemption

(Chorus)

Fly me on the wings of an angel
Bathe me in the sea of joy
Take me from all this world of turmoil
Deliver me, deliver me

(Chorus)

Fly me on the wings of an angel
Bathe me in the sea of joy
Take me from all this world of turmoil
Deliver me, deliver me
Redemption, redemption
