Foghat - Angel of Mercy (Live) - Video
PUBLISHED:  Apr 01, 2016
DESCRIPTION:
One of very last live concerts with "Foghat" front lined by Lonesome Dave Peverett (1943-2000). In those days he was already seriously ill. It is quite moving to see him performing this song. It is most remarkable to know that Lonesome Dave wrote this song when he was already incurable ill. The lyrics follows:

"Angel of Mercy" by Lonesome Dave Peverett

In all this confusion, so sad to be alone,
In darkness and shadows - a place I call home.
You kill me with kindness, 'til I feel no pain,
Angel of mercy when you call my name.

And now more than ever, in these ever-changing times,
Your love can help me, ease my troubled mind.
You kill me with kindness, 'til I feel no pain,
Angel of mercy when you call my name.

Bring light to my blindness, and shelter from the rain,
Angel of mercy when you speak my name.
Back on that dark road, I know so well.
I'm so broken hearted, but no one, no one can tell.

Kill me with kindness, 'til I feel no pain,
Angel of mercy when you call my name.
Bring light to my blindness, shelter from the rain,
Angel of mercy, when you call my name.
