The

he came riding fast like
a phoenix out of fire flames
he came dressed in black
with a cross bearing my name
he came bathed in light
and the splendor and glory
i can't believe what
the lord has finally sent me

he said dance for me
fanciulla gentil
he said laugh a while
i can make your heart feel
he said fly with me
touch the face of the true god
and then cry with joy
at the depth of my love

cause i've prayed days
i've prayed nights
for the lord just to
send me home some sign
i've looked long
i've looked far
to bring peace
to my black
and empty heart
