The Faith Healer - The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

Ooh, I miss it high How it dulled the error and the beauty And now I see everything in startling intensity What I wouldn't give If it would take away the sting I'm in And everything I love, I'd trade it in To feel it rush into my chest The smoke alarm's been going off for weeks No one showed up And half the time it isn't what you think of Faith healer Come put your hands on me A snake oil dealer I'll believe you if you make me feel something Oh, faith healer Come put your hands all over me A snake oil dealer I'll believe you if you make me feel something

Why? The question that is never far away But the healing doesn't come from the explained Jesus please don't let this go in vain You're all I have All that remains So here I am What's left of me Where glory meets my suffering I'm alive Even though a part of me has died You take my heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide Breathe Sometimes I feel it's all that I can do Pain so deep that I can hardly move Just keep my eyes completely fixed on You Lord take hold and pull me through So here I am What's left of me Where glory meets my suffering I'm alive Even though a part of me has died You take my heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide It's the moment when humanity Is overcome by majesty When grace is ushered in for good And all our scars are understood When mercy takes its rightful place And all these questions fade away When out of the weakness we must bow And hear You say "It's over now" I'm alive And even though a part of me has died You take this heart and breathe it back to life I fall into Your arms open wide When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart and take my tears Find Your glory even here When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart and take my tears Find Your glory even here When the hurt and the healer collide Jesus come and break my fear Wake my heart, take my tears Find Your glory even here

Heaven, I'm in Heaven And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak And I seem to find the happiness I seek When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek Heaven, I'm in Heaven And the cares that hung around me through the week Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek I love to climb a mountain To reach the highest peak It don't excite me half as much As dancing cheek to cheek I love to go out fishing In a river or a creek It don't excite me half as much As dancing cheek to cheek Dance with me I want my arms about you The charm about you Will carry me through To heaven, I'm in Heaven And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak And I seem to find the happiness I seek When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek Dance with me I want my arms about you The charm about you Will carry me through To Heaven, I'm in Heaven And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak And I seem to find the happiness I seek When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek Out together dancing cheek to cheek Out together dancing cheek to cheek

"Oh please, don't sell me out", Said the man with the hammer, Hammering the anvil "I've been walking on the road of rocks And I keep on hammering, Keep on hammering, Keep on hammering Hammering the anvil." "Don't let the sun go down," Said the man with the fire, Firing the furnace "I've been buried in the snow And I keep on firing, Keep on firing, Firing the furnace." "Don't talk to me", Said the man with the chisel, Chiseling the surface "I've been sleeping far too long, And I keep on chiseling, Keep on chiseling, Keep on chiseling Chiseling the surface." "I don't know what you mean", Said the man with the shovel, Shoveling the ashes, "I've been diggin in the frozen ground, And I keep on shoveling, Keep on shoveling, Keep on shoveling, Shoveling the ashes Chiseling the surface, Firing the furnace, Hammering the anvil Hammering the anvil. "Oh please, don't sell me out", Said the man with the hammer, Hammering the anvil "I've been walking on the road of rocks, And I keep on hammering, Keep on hammering, Keep on hammering, Hammering the anvil." Shoveling the ashes Chiseling the surface Firing the furnace Hammering the anvil. Keep it on, keep it on, keep it on! Hammering the anvil.

I got a call on a rainy Monday Business was uneasy So I flipped open a fresh packet of cigarettes And considered the situation Was her daddy bad? Was it bullets for my baby? But there's one thing bothering me Who was the man in the jar? The fog drifted down over the river I turned up the collar of my coat I gotta get over there fast, fast, fast Call me a cab, call me a cab I entered the study Through the French windows There on the floor was all that was left Of the man with no face Crazy, was the name of the case Of the man with no face The man in the jar Daisy, was the name of the dame With the fabulous frame The man in the jar Brother, I'm telling a tale Of a beautiful frail Whose daddy was bad Buddy, don't give me no jive Just staying alive The man in the jar, The man in the jar He wanna get out, he wanna get out Smashin' the glass, smashin' the glass Smashin' the glass, the man in the jar I knew this was the grand finale 'Cause Hot City was too hot for Daisy That was the name of the frail who ended in jail Leaving me as a patsy Honey take my gun Sixteen guys entered the elevator at the same time That can only mean that I must be the man in the jar Hot shot, give me the phone Then leave me alone I'm like the man in the jar Sister, you got me all wrong I'm stringing along With the man in the jar Zaba, zaba, zaba, da, ba, baba, da, za, zaba, da, ba Zaba, zaba, zaba, da, ba, baba, da, za, zaba, da, ba The man in the jar, the man in the jar He wanna get out, he wanna get out He's smashin' the glass, he's smashin' the glass He's smashin' the glass, the man in the jar
