Covenant Woman
Covenant woman got a contract with the Lord Way up yonder, great will be her reward. Covenant woman, shining like a morning star, I know I can trust you to stay where you are. And I just got to tell you I do intend To stay closer than any friend. I just got to thank you Once again For making your prayers known Unto heaven for me And to you, always, so grateful I will forever be. I've been broken, shattered like an empty cup. I'm just waiting on the Lord to rebuild and fill me up And I know He will do it 'cause He's faithful and He's true, He must have loved me so much to send me someone as fine as you. And I just got to tell you I do intend To stay closer than any friend. I just got to thank you Once again For making your prayers known SongtexteUnto heaven for me And to you, always, so grateful I will forever be. Covenant woman, intimate little girl Who knows those most secret things of me that are hidden from the world. You know we are strangers in a land we're passing through. I'll always be right by your side, I've got a covenant too. And I just got to tell you I do intend To stay closer than any friend. I just got to thank you Once again For making your prayers known Unto heaven for me And to you, always, so grateful I will forever be. Aus Songtexte Mania
