lyrics

With a can of beer and a tragic sneer, he sings all the afternoon
Outside the Pizza Hut, indifference sees a nut as just a normal loon
Now the traffic keeps a humming as he pours out his soul
Every word is meant for you and me

As the Jesus people fight, so others can see the light

Angel of Mercy, you helped me walk and you helped me talk when I didn’t think I could
Angel of Mercy, your words helped me, when my lips failed me and I wasn’t much good

Picture a man, who’s had a stroke, he laughs and he cries and he talks to the folk that he conjures
Now see the man with a funny twitch, he fought in the war, but he didn’t get rich
Now he tells his stories and recalls the horrors with a sentimental smile
It was so sublime to live in that time

Now he sits at the bar, makes me touch his scars and remembers

Angel of Mercy, you helped me walk and you helped me talk when I didn’t think I could
Angel of Mercy, your words helped me, when my lips failed me and I wasn’t much good
