Sweet Chariots

Starry midnight, robed in shadows

Give my weary heart release

Spread your sable covering mantle

Over me, to rest in peaceAnd my eyes are staring blankly

And my teeth are shining brightAnd sweet, sweet chariots

They roll across the sky

Sweet, sweet chariots

They roll across the skyMidnight prowlers of the jungle

Steal beneath the holy shade

Just as the breath obscures the mirror

So reflections slowly fadeAnd my voice is ever singing

And my soul is full of lightThundercloud, black and grey

Getting darker every dayI am blessed, I am an angel

And my wings are silver-white
