Won't You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me The devil's got me all tied up and he just won't set me free I've been all drunk'd up in a honky tonk at the bottom of misery Won't You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me Well I know what You done for ol' Daniel when he was down in the lion's den And I heard about the time that You split the water and You saved 10,000 men And I've read a lot of stories and I've seen a lot of pictures Of You walking on the deep blue sea So want You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me I've been walking alone since mid-night with a bottle and a heavy mind As I looked up the first thing I saw was a flashing neon sign Well I read it again and I smiled to myself when it flashed on Jesus saves The Salvation Army rescued me so I wanna thank you for another new day Won't You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me The devil's got me all tied up and he just won't set me free I've been all drunk'd up in a honky tonk at the bottom of misery Won't You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me Won't You swoop down sweet Jesus and put a hold on me
