Bob Dylan - Covenant Woman Lyrics
Covenant woman got a contract with the lordWay 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 youI do intendTo stay closer than any friend.I just got to thank youOnce againFor making your prayers knownUnto heaven for meAnd to you, always, so gratefulI will forever be.Ive been broken, shattered like an empty cup.Im just waiting on the lord to rebuild and fill me upAnd I know he will do it cause hes faithful and hes true,He must have loved me so much to send me someone as fine as you.And I just got to tell youI do intendTo stay closer than any friend.I just got to thank youOnce againFor making your prayers knownUnto heaven for meAnd to you, always, so gratefulI will forever be.Covenant woman, intimate little girlWho knows those most secret things of me that are hidden from the world.You know we are strangers in a land were passing through.Ill always be right by your side, Ive got a covenant too.And I just got to tell youI do intendTo stay closer than any friend.I just got to thank youOnce againFor making your prayers knownUnto heaven for meAnd to you, always, so gratefulI will forever be.
