Lord Above, I just killed a man,
Let somebody take the blame,
Lord above, I'm knelling down,
my pray take away this pain all up in here.

Im prayin', Lord im prayin' to you,
Take away this guilt all up in my head
Im pleading, lord im pleading with you,
We got some dealings to do before the day im dead.

He came for me just like i knew he would,
But this time I was ready and I killed him good.
But we weren't alone, there was one more left
he took my weapon from me, put it to the test.
When this angel appeared out of the dark,
with the devil in his eyes but god in his heart.
He slayed him down, 
Saved me from a sudden death,
But i've still done wrong, so now

Im prayin', Lord im prayin' to you,
Take away this guilt all up in my head
Im pleading, lord im pleading with you,
We got some dealings to do before the day im dead.

So there we are,
An angel and a man,
Both just standing there,
With blood on our hands.
What we gonna to do now,
this what I thought.
But before i could say it the angel talked.
He said im in here for life, anyway,
your only in here for five ill take the blame.
So go right now don't feel ashamed,
But 'o lord I do that's why I pray!

Im prayin', O' Lord im prayin' to you,
Save me from these sins weighing down on my soul.
Im pleading, lord im pleading to you,
got some healing to do inside im feeling low.

Im prayin', Lord im prayin' to you,
Take away this guilt all up in my head
Im pleading, lord im pleading with you,
We got some dealings to do before the day im dead.

Im prayin', O' Lord im prayin' to you,
Save me from these sins weighing down on my soul.
Im pleading, lord im pleading to you,
got some healing to do inside im feeling low.

That's it. Really simple - hope this helps, please rate!
