Petra - Angel Of Light lyrics

Words and music by Bob Hartman

City lights are flashing, they call you to the streets

Hearts are filled with passion in everyone you meet

The Boulevard is waiting, it wants to get you high

Neon signs are waiting to sell you anything you want to buy

But I know your devices, it shouldn't seem so odd

You lied from the beginning, I see through your facade

(Chorus)

Angel of light, I see you glow in the night

But you only bring darkness to my soul

Angel of light, You're telling me wrong is right

I won't let you're evil take control

They follow in your footsteps not knowing that you fell

Bumper to bumper on the freeway to hell

You lead them into wrong and you make it look so right

You lead them into darkness and make them think you lead them into light

But I know where you're going, too bad you're not alone

If it wasn't for the real light I might have never known

You got the clergy working overtime to widen the narrow way

You've got politicians everywhere listening to what you say

You've got false apostles teaching lies perverting the only way

You've got principalities and powers waiting to obey

You've got philosophies and vain deceipts lying to deceive

You've got hate, and greed, ungodly lusts in the deadly web you weave

Somehow you've got so many thinking you're not even there

One look is all it takes to get them blinded by your glare
