Be merciful, be tender,
For I have no strength to fight.
Treat me kindly, dear new angel,
Deepest colour of the night.
God be merciful, be gentle,
for I have no strength to fight
Treat me kindly, dear blue angel,
keep as calm as the night
Please be merciful, be gentle,
for I have no strength to fight
Keep declaiming you're an angel
Keepers come alive
