Jennifer Nettles – This Angel lyrics

Jennifer Nettles – This Angel lyrics

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 laugh to begin.

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.

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.

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.

This Angel , I think it may be about giving birth, a sacred moment . Angel is the baby sent here, to "save" her. (From herself) Life to begin , not laugh to begin. Holy water from her own veins, sharing the very Holy essence of birth, water of life, from her own body. (Veins) nourishing the baby she is bringing forth. Sent here to save her from being too wordly and ground her to what's important and do very real.
