"This Angel" lyrics - JENNIFER NETTLES

Who is this angel, sent here to change me
Sent here to take me where I've never been?
Long I have wandered, weary and waiting
For something to shake me and life to begin

[Chorus:]
Holy water from my own veins
Come and save me where I lay
All this longing for beauty unnamed
It has broken me open to welcome the hope that you bring

Can you hear me calling, come let me hold you
Naked and falling into my arms
With every breath in my body, the sweetest surrender
Is losing myself in all that you are

[Chorus:]
Holy water from my own veins
Come and save me where I lay
All this longing for beauty unnamed
It has broken me open to welcome the hope that you bring

[Outro:]
Holy water from my own veins
Come and save me where I lay
All this longing for beauty unnamed
It has broken me open to welcome the hope
It has broken me open to welcome the hope
It has broken me open to welcome the hope that you bring
