I saw an angel sing at church, you won't believe this
She had a voice, I swear to god I saw Jesus
They introduced her as the daughter of the preacher
and then I found out she was only 17, have mercy
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Outside the church, the congregation threw a picnic
Hotter than hell, I found myself back in the kitchen
Gotta confess it was a miracle I witnessed
The preacher's wife had a way of stealing kisses
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Show me some mercy in your light
Oh Lord, Matthew would have us all blind
Oh, tonight
Lord take my eyes
Lord take my sight
Lord knows I'm begging you for Mercy
Next thing I knew I found myself in holy water
Came up for air to find the preacher and his daughter
But I had to split man the situation got serious
and I could clearly see this denomination ain't right for me
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
