The Gospel Song

May your eyes have mercy on the likes of this stranger,
for i am alone and have no place to go.
i have danced at the door to the den of the devil,
but i have not tainted my soul.
and the words that i'm crying is a dream that lay dying
of a love, a love that is no more.
may your eyes have mercy on the likes of this stranger,
as i lay my heart at your door.
can you see on the horizon the storm that is coming?
the smell's in the air like the sweet taste of sin.
i stand on your doorstep, my clothes are all tattered,
oh won't you please let me in?
and the words that i'm crying is a dream that lay dying
of a love, a love that up and ran.
may your eyes have mercy on the likes of this stranger,
as i lay my heart in your hands.
i have squandered my youth and fortunes
on words that were spoken untrue,
and the weight of my load's left me broken and cold
so i leave my redemption to you.
may your eyes have mercy on the likes of this stranger,
for i am alone and have no place to go.
it's a long, hard, cold lonely road that i've traveled,
oh won't you please take my soul?
it's a voice that is crying, it's a dream that lay dying,
it's a love that won't be back no more.
may your eyes have mercy on the likes of this stranger,
oh won't you please, oh won't you please,
save my soul.
