Sweet Lord In Heaven Lyrics


Oh, I have felt Cobain's sarcoma growing on
This will of mine drag me down into the water
The joy I feel before I drownAnd the Lord's hand moves on the scheme of my nerves
In the chemicals swimming and the substance of the earth
His love's so great but the soul singers spurn him
To sing their love to some unknown reckless girlThey sing to great Queen Heroina
The comfort that she warms them with
Their music swells with all their yearning
They are ashamed to sing for himWho has built these shells that our spirits knock inside
And weep for their release in the onrush of the tide
Of the Lord's great seas that will boil when he returns
To pluck us off the face of this sad and dirty worldI saw Sam Cooke and Ian Curtis
At the door of His golden realm
They sang His name, sweet Lord in Heaven
And then the Lord, He let them in

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Mike Doughty (born June 10, 1970, in Fort Knox, Kentucky) is an American indie and alternative rock singer-songwriter and author. The former frontman of Soul Coughing from 1992, Doughty began writing solo songs in 1995, but nothing materialized until Soul Coughing broke up in 2000. At this point Doughty began touring solo with his acoustic guitar (after becoming clean and sober). His album Skittish (recorded 1996; released 2000) was finally released, along with the EP Rockity Roll. Doughty then formed a touring band including an upright bass, drums and keyboard.
