Lyrics: Medieval Song of Crusaders. 2nd Crusade. Poet unknown

I want to be an Angel but I was born a Man

A crown upon my forehead, a harp within my hand

Right before my Saviour, so glorious and bright

I will praise him day and night

I never would be weary, nor ever shed a tear

Nor ever know a sorrow nor ever feel a fear

There before my Savior, so glorious and bright

I will sing for Him day and night

CHORUS:

Lord is in the Heaven

But Satan dwells with us

We trade them, we sell our souls

With words "IN GOD WE TRUST"

Who are we? such thankless creatures

We send our Savior on the cross again

But Satan was an Angel... wrong one... He-he...

He' seems to be doing hitherto pretty well

Will Thou let Him die in vain?

Crucify your Lord again?

Will Thou still in sin remain?

Greedy of eternal pain?

WHY???????

I know we are weak and sinful, but Jesus will forgive

For many little children have gone to heaven to live

And when one day I languish and lay me down to die

Oh, send me shining angel to bear to the sky

There I'll be an angel and with the angel stand

A crown upon my forehead, a harp with in my hand

There before my Saviour so glorious and bright

I will sing for Him day and night
